[rounder13]

ok the math confused me a little,i understand that if your playin a 2 deck game and the count's plus 6 the tc would be plus 3.what if the count's in the minus,say minus 6 in a 2 deck game....would the tc be minus 3 ?

Right, -3 TC. At the beginning of the game you will be dividing by 2. You will then adjust your divisor as cards are dealt.

You have to remember as well that you do not divide by just the number of decks in the game. You divide by the number of decks remaining

I don't know about other places, but in Reno, the dealers will remove a 1/2 a deck before you even play. So divide by the amount of unseen decks.

it is depends which counting strategy do you use

so do you divide the unseen decks plus the 1/2 decks they removed? Like if there was 6D with 4.5D dealt do you divide by 6 or 4.5?

Not trying to jack your thread

At the beginning of the shoe you would divide by 6. After 1 deck has been dealt you would divide by 5, etc. You always divide by the number of decks uncounted.
