Per Hour (blackjack)
The expression "Hourly winnings (or losses)" (in
dollars) of winnings or losses "per hour" is often
encountered. This assumes "100 hands per hour" played,
a figure arrived at through observation of dealers' dealing
& shuffling speed, combined with player's speed in playing
their hands etc. The win rate (or loss rate) per hour is straightforwardly
calculated as W per hour = number of hands per hour * EV * average
bet. It is admittedly on the arbitrary side but helps to give
a good approximation of an expected win rate (or conversely,
loss rate) in money.
