$12 per hour is about right for a $50 bet.
Math homework: how much would he lose per hour if he bet $1000 per hand, and only sat down at the table and played the last hand before the shuffle, and got up after the first hand after the shuffle? And what would his average bet per hour be?
hehe, so i'm right at about $23/hr for 100 bet.
Interesting problem; this could be attacked at different angle; 1) if it's only 2 hands in between 1 shuffle, 6 people at table, that's 5.5 minutes of "play" based on average dealer (not including if a pitboss has power to tell computer stop timer during shuffle, while h/she at table). EstL=3.9/h x 2hin=$7.8 for the hour. The average that the computer would say is 1k/hr for 5.5min play. But, in real $, 2h=$2k in 5.5min + $0k in 54.5min, gives avg bet of 183.33/hr. But, gets 16.5 comppoints at fw. (I still think the variance too high; h/she can lose2k if loses both hands). (I still think he can potentially lose $2k if dealer wins both hands. And, none of my scenario includes any splits or dd, which would increase amount).
2) But, if this individual repeats action and is lucky to find a table at the same situation in 30 second intervals, then one can predict 20hands= exp los$30, 20shuffle watchings, 10 lucky findings of getting table & pitguy to log you in within my estimates here; avg bet=333.33; exp comp=165.
