Counting your ships is always a good idea, not only because of potential theft but because the staff can make mistakes while coloring up the chips. While this is pretty rare, it did happen once to a guy sitting on my left at a final table. They ran the "eye in the sky" tapes but his stack was blocked by the floor's back. 
 
Everyone was getting really impatient--the players, the dealer and especially the floor--but the guy was really adamant that he was short t5K. I really like and trust him so I believed him. Finally I suggested that they count all the chips at the table which should equal the amount of chips that had been in play from the start of the tourney, give or take a small round up from the race. Seemed like a no brainer to me. Sure enough, the table was short t5K; he was given his chips and play resumed.
 
What was really funny was that the floor then accused the dealer (a very good looking woman) of distracting him while he was coloring up. We all had a pretty good laugh over that one. :)
