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

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

  1. Column 2 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 1 column 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.

Big Eye Boy · Mark #2

Column 2 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

  1. Column 3 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 2 with Column 1, 1 column further back.
  2. Column 2 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

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

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 & SHOE PROCEDURES

Scoreboard Hardware, Derived-Road Symmetry & Shoe Protocols in Washington St and Macau Cotai

Even when Washington St (WSGC-capped house-banked EZ Baccarat and 5% commission) and Macau Cotai (DICJ No-Commission Baccarat (Banker 6 pays 50%) and Lucky 6) differ on reader board and derived-road displays, Galaxy Gaming & Shufflemaster Trend Monitors and LT Game & Angel Eye 5-Road Bead-to-Cockroach Matrix plot identical derived-road trajectories for any given shoe sequence.

At Fortune Casino Tukwila (Tukwila, La Center & Tacoma, Washington) and Galaxy Macau & City of Dreams (Cotai, Macau SAR), mandated table game filings pair WSGC standard indicator burn and camera-verified discard with bar-7 push on EZ felt with statutory per-hand wager ceilings in SEA and DICJ face-up indicator burn; cards destroyed after single shoe with HKD denomination chips with Ask-Road Banker/Player probe buttons in MFM.

  • Confirm Washington St (WSGC EZ & 5%) vs. Macau Cotai (DICJ No-Comm 6) settlement placards before placing a Banker wager at ilani Casino Resort & Palace Casino or The Venetian Macao & Wynn Palace Cotai.
  • Read Galaxy Gaming & Shufflemaster Trend Monitors (SEA) and LT Game & Angel Eye 5-Road Bead-to-Cockroach Matrix (MFM) derived roads accurately: red (=) marks repeating Big Road symmetry and blue (≠) marks a symmetry break.
  • Verify statutory floor entry age (18+ in Washington St, 21+ in Macau Cotai) and carry government photo ID for cage transactions.
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythIn Washington St (ilani Casino Resort & Palace Casino) or Macau Cotai (The Venetian Macao & Wynn Palace Cotai), different LED scoreboard manufacturers calculate Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig entries using region-specific formulas.
TruthUnder both Washington State Gambling Commission and Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ), all certified display vendors render the exact same mathematical lookback rules (columns k-1, k-2, and k-3), where red marks repeating symmetry and blue marks breaking symmetry.
MythOn Galaxy Gaming & Shufflemaster Trend Monitors in Washington St and LT Game & Angel Eye 5-Road Bead-to-Cockroach Matrix in Macau Cotai, red marks on derived roads indicate Banker and blue marks indicate Player.
TruthAcross SEA, MFM, and KWL, derived-road red (=) always indicates repeating Big Road column structure and blue (≠) indicates a break in symmetry, never Banker or Player.
