I've never once had Bali belly. I drink out of glasses and have ice, I use straws, I eat salads and plenty of local dishes. I never remember to use that gel cleaning stuff on my hands before meals. Basically, I'm not very careful at all and the thought of getting BB never really crosses my mind while I'm there.
A friend of mine this past trip was very cautious as she'd been sick in Bali last year - she got BB again this trip, though the other 3 of us that ate at the same places were fine.
I think it just comes down to luck and your own immune system.
