Case M215-0 maps the commission-adjusted 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder (1-2-3-5) across a 100-unit bankroll and a 360-hand (5-shoe) window, where a 80-unit table ceiling and 50-unit stop-loss produce a 34.27% ruin rate while benchmarks an average stake absorption-curve of 1.48x and 6.26u ($313) in theoretical house-edge toll. Every 8-deck hand remains statistically independent (45.86% Banker, 44.62% Player, 9.52% Tie), meaning progression sizing reshapes session variance without altering the house edge.
Reference 8-deck shoe for Matrix Cell M215 (1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder, 100u bankroll, 360 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.
This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).
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.
This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).
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.
Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).
Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 1.
Matrix cell M215 tests 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder with a $50 base unit and -50u/+25u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -50u drawdown barrier before completing 360 hands or reaching +25u.
Share of 360-hand trajectories reaching the +25u session ceiling, with 28.02% ending between barriers.
A 80-unit house limit and 100-unit stack cap 1-2-3-5 escalation after 6 adverse coups.
Derived from 533u total action (1.48x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
In asymmetric benchmark M215-1, running 1-2-3-5 across 360 deals with 100 units and a 80-unit maximum wager documents 533u of total handle, 6.26u in commission-weighted drift, and a 34.27% probability of exhausting the 50-unit drawdown buffer.
Case M215-2 benchmarks the combinatorial 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder (1-2-3-5) across a 100-unit bankroll and a 360-hand (5-shoe) window, where a 80-unit table ceiling and 50-unit stop-loss produce a 34.27% ruin rate while calibrates an average stake stake-velocity of 1.48x and 6.26u ($313) in theoretical house-edge toll.
| M215 Parameter | 1-2-3-5 (100u) | 5-Shoe volatility-band |
|---|---|---|
| 1-2-3-5 Ladder | 1-2-3-5 (4 steps) | Peak 5u multiplier on M215 |
| 100u Stack Window | 360 hands (5 shoes) | Barriers -50u / +25u |
| 80u Ceiling & Ruin | 34.27% ruin vs 37.71% win | Depth 6 steps (2 cap hits) |
| 533u Handle & Hold | 6.26u ($313) | Multiplier 1.48x (eight-deck drift) |
In non-stationary benchmark M215-3, running 1-2-3-5 across 360 deals with 100 units and a 80-unit maximum wager models 533u of total handle, 6.26u in commission-weighted drift, and a 34.27% probability of exhausting the 50-unit drawdown buffer.
Case M215-4 computes the table-capped 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder (1-2-3-5) across a 100-unit bankroll and a 360-hand (5-shoe) window, where a 80-unit table ceiling and 50-unit stop-loss produce a 34.27% ruin rate while models an average stake drawdown-slope of 1.48x and 6.26u ($313) in theoretical house-edge toll.
