If there are enough players that the counts will be volatile enough to go from -2 (or so) to a positive count, you are probably playing too slow a game

. Aside from that, yes, you are indeed getting positive cards while the count drops, but I don't see how that is relevant, unless you are talking about the value of playing negative counts because you are getting good cards, which is not the way to go. DS in BJA3 talks about optimal departure point to maximize your WR, and although it varies depending on the current deck depth, general rule of thumb is that -1 is the best time to leave.
