Being not-a-counter, I can't really be expected to know these things so I'm sure this will probably sound like a newbie question.
With that said. . .
How good are $3 tables for counting? It seems that being such a small minimum denomination these tables wouldn't be policed too stringently and you could probably get away with a larger bet spread.
In Wendover, ALL games are:
1 Deck
3:2
H17
DOA but No DAS
In regard to penetration, it generally seems excellent. I actually asked a dealer once how deep into the deck she dealt and she told me she tries to deal until there just aren't enough cards left. She said, "They want us to leave X number of cards left but I don't really worry about it" and that seemed to be pretty typical from some of the tables I sat at. If you're playing heads up, you will certainly get several hands in before the shuffle.
Anyway. . .
At one casino I go to they have two $3 tables and, as I am SLOWLY moving toward making the decision to really put the time and effort into learning to count, it seems like this might be a good place to start.
