    Average number of cards per hand per count

    I know it's ~2.5 cards per hand on average. What about in sections with very high or low counts?

    this makes me think of Dubey's book No Need To Count, a good bit of his rational was based on this phenomenon.
    anyway it's ~2.7 cards per hand on average.

    Possibly a result of 7-9 going uncounted?

    Correct frostbyte.

    An high proportion of 2 and 3 card stiffs contain a 7 or an 8 or a 9.
