Automatic shufflers and using 3 or 4 decks, make the benefit from cardcounting almost zero.

Na. 3-4 deck just means your plus count needs to be higher before your betting weight should be going up. You also need to play more hands over time for it to average out too.

So if your waiting for +8 or +10 before leaning, you would wait for +20 or so.

It's when they use 6+ decks then it kind of becomes moot.

Na. 6+ decks just means your plus count needs to be higher before your betting weight should be going up. You also need to play more hands over time for it to average out too.

So if your waiting for +20 before leaning, you would wait for +300 or so.

It's when they use 20+ decks then it kind of becomes moot.

Na. 20+ decks just means your plus count needs to be higher before your betting weight should be going up. You also need to play more hands over time for it to average out too.

So if your waiting for +180 before leaning, you would wait for +4000 or so.

It's when they use 200+ decks then it kind of becomes moot.

How do you count with automatic shufflers though? Even if you count one hand, the next one one you'd have to reset..

You can't count against a continuous shuffler machine.
