What is your maximum bet? If you answered "infinity" then you are playing with an infinite spread. However, table maximums, finite bankrolls, max bet limitations (to preserve an acceptable ROR), and cover betting will prevent this from happening.
Most players will max out at a bet of <=1% of their bankroll at a TC of around +5. That is why most bet spreads are stated as a ratio. Playing during positive counts only will give you a wider bet spread, but certainly not an infinite one.
