And, no, I do not agree with the point that the robbers act out of there being less risk of being reported. They want to make a quick (hopefully big and easy) score. I don't think they care about being reported.

I don't see how this can be true. There are quite a few business' that deal in cash. I think poker is a bigger target than the others because of the perception that their is a chance the police won't be called.
The key word is perception. It doesn't matter if the owners actually report 100% of the robberies, the fact that the criminals think they that might not make it more attractive to rob.
