The pulls that carry the packs
How the number is worked out
Each Pitch Black pack holds $2.88 of cards on average: the published pull rate of every rarity times the average TCGplayer market price of the cards in it, plus the common, uncommon and reverse holo slots. The Booster Bundle has 6 packs, so 6 x $2.88 = $17.28. Expected value is a long-run average: most openings land below it and a few far above, and selling fees come out of what you would net.
