Hello All,

I received my Stanford Wong's "Professional Blackjack" yesterday and I have a question.

On page 49 (chapt 4) Wong is explaining what he calls 'Count per Deck' which appears to be the same as True Count. Please correct me here if I am wrong.

In the example Wong uses a running count of +2 and the remaining cards is given as 3 halves left out of 2 decks. In some examples I have seen, in other books and on line, true count is shown as running count divided by the number of half decks remaining. So for the example given it would appear as 2 divided by 3. But Wong is showing the calculation as 2 divided by 3/2. It appears that he is using 3/2 because there is 3 halves. He does not give a very good explaination here and I would like to make sure I have the correct method fixed in my mind. Can someone explain to me what Wong is doing here and the proper method of calculating Count per Deck and/or True Count if they are not the same? Of course I plan to use the High/Lo system.

Hope this makes sense...

Thanks
