The do at land border crossings and Thai immigration check for stamps for entering and departing Laos.

There have been few reports of the them checking on entry to Laos by air also.

Alright, so can I just show them the Thai exit stamp in my other passport and ask them to stamp me me me in with my HK passport

( visa exempt ) whereas the other is not.

would go from Laos to China then, so no worries about Thai side

I would advise not to do this, it blows their mind that you can hold 2 valid passports from the same country.

 

Also within Thailand i suggest not to let them know you have 2 passports.

 

I wanted to come into Thailand on passport #1 ( with valid non 'O' ) then exit with same passport but enter Laos on passport #2 to get a new non 'O' put on that passport, i was informed it's not possible to 'switch' passports in no mans land crossing the border so came in on a Visa Expemt on passport #2 then crossed to Laos.
