    What is the average amount of shoes that you will encounter a high count?

    I was backcount for 6 or more hours at a casino yesterday. I came across three shoes that are high enough to wongin on. I was backcounting their 8 deck games. What is usually the average of good shoes one will encounter during 6 hours of backcounting?

    it varies a little from penetration looks like around 28% of the time at +1>. The more decks will compress the frequency to a lower true count, and the higher the penetration will allow for higher frequency in the high counts, should of seen around 150hands average at 100 watched an hour.
