    While this is true, the dealer will make a good hand out of a potential bust hand more frequently, it isn't the answer I was looking for, Slingshot. I though one of the blackjack guys would chime in and say, at a true count of -3, you are playing at a greater disadvantage, about 2% disadvantage, and the best option is to not be playing at such a negative count. That is the way I play anyway.
    The correct answer is to hit at a TC of -3. If the question was worded differently I would agree with what you wrote for the answer but it was not. You presented the trick question with the player already facing that situation.
