Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
Big Eye Boy · Mark #1

Column 2 has 1 bead. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 3 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 2 with Column 1, 1 column further back.
  2. Column 2 has 1 bead. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 2, the one that just finished, with Column 1.

Big Eye Boy · Mark #2

This bead is at Row 2. Column 2 stopped at Row 1, one row above → blue (≠).

  1. Column 3 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 1 column back, at Column 2.
  2. Column 2 stopped at Row 1, one row above → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 2 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

Small Road · Mark #1

This bead is at Row 2. Column 1 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

  1. Column 3 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 2 columns back, at Column 1.
  2. Column 1 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 1 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

Scoreboard Hardware, Derived-Road Symmetry & Shoe Protocols in Gold Coast QL and Nassau BHM

Comparing TCS John Huxley & Light & Wonder Displays (OOL) with TCS John Huxley & Light & Wonder i-Score Displays (NAS) alongside Shufflemaster i-Score Monitors (DSM) confirms that derived-road colors track structural regularity rather than side outcomes.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythIn Gold Coast QL (The Star Gold Coast Broadbeach) or Nassau BHM (Baha Mar Casino Nassau), switching from a 5% commission table to a no-commission bar-7 or Super 6 table alters the underlying card distribution.
TruthUnder both Queensland Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation (OLGR) and Gaming Board for The Bahamas, commission rules only modify how winning Banker wagers are settled on specific totals such as three-card 7 or winning 6, leaving the 8-deck draw probabilities untouched.
MythOn TCS John Huxley & Light & Wonder Displays in Gold Coast QL and TCS John Huxley & Light & Wonder i-Score Displays in Nassau BHM, red marks on derived roads indicate Banker and blue marks indicate Player.
TruthAcross OOL, NAS, and DSM, derived-road red (=) always indicates repeating Big Road column structure and blue (≠) indicates a break in symmetry, never Banker or Player.
