So if I were to just cross the border and then cross the border back on the same day it wouldn't be a problem since I haven't done it more than twice this year and just get a 30 days stamp. That just seems so much easier and hassle free.  I guess what is the worst that can happen? Try and if they ask where my Visa is, if they really denied my entry without a Visa then I'll just have to apply for a TR Visa anyways so I guess trying that won't hurt. 

I've been thinking about it and I think I'm going to have to just submit another application and do a Visa run to HK and apply for a 3rd TR Visa in Hong Kong when I am there, because I've already been to Laos twice, for a Visa run (one by air and one by bus), and I already had to pay $35 to enter Laos, and their Visa unfortunately takes up an entire page in my Passport.

I've only got 2 blank pages left in my Passport and I want to make that work until I go back to US in December. Also isn't land crossing visa exempt only 15 days as opposed to 30 days from air? Since I will be staying in Thailand from October-December (60 days), I think the TR Visa in Hong Kong would be a better choice now that I think about it. I won't get any stamps in HK, and I won't have to spend a day at Changwattana immigration to extend a 30 day Visa exemption to 60 day for 1,900 Baht. 

I have a US Passport, for my first trips to Thailand, I never applied for a Visa, I just got Visa exemption stamp because I was leaving in a few days.  I realized that I wanted to come back so I came back multiple times staying for only a few days, then decided I wanted to rent a condo and stay long term so I came back again then when that was up, I traveled to Hong Kong and then back without applying for a Visa, then I got another extension and before my 60 days were up I booked a flight to Malaysia and then back to Bangkok on the same day....this was my 5th visa exemption stamp and the officer at immigration questioned me because he said I left on the same day today and back on the same day and he asked me what are you here for?" and so I just told him that I am with my girlfriend here and he let me in but said I need to apply for a TR Visa next time

So after that I got 2 back to back TR Visas in Laos. First time I flew and 2nd time i used fhe Bus to go to cross the border... Now this Visa will expire in October, but I have plans to go to Hong Kong in October... and I already have my ticket to go back to USA in December.  Do you think it will be ok, that after I got 2 back to back TR Visas from Laos, I go on my trip to Hong Kong in October and come back to Thailand without applying for a Visa and just get the 30 day Visa exemption stamp that I can extend for 30 days? If they question me about where my new Visa is, can i explain to them that I didn't get a Visa this time because I do not plan to stay for 3 months and already have a ticket to leave after 2 months? What are the chances of them denying my entry and has anyone ever got their entry denied after 5 Visa exempt stamps by air and 2 back to back Visas one by air and one by bus?
