Under multi-coup boundary rules in M220-0, pairing 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder with 200 units across 5 shoes (360 hands) and a 80-unit maximum benchmarks a 16.76% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 6 adverse steps before capital-bounded envelope truncation. 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 M220 (1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder, 200u bankroll, 360 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.
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.
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.
Matrix cell M220 tests 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder with a $50 base unit and -100u/+50u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -100u drawdown barrier before completing 360 hands or reaching +50u.
Share of 360-hand trajectories reaching the +50u session ceiling, with 40.62% ending between barriers.
A 80-unit house limit and 200-unit stack cap 1-2-3-5 escalation after 6 adverse coups.
Derived from 626u total action (1.74x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
Audit M220-1 models the finite-shoe turnover of 1-2-3-5 when anchored to 200 units and a 360-hand (5-shoe) schedule: the 80-unit maximum wager restricts recovery at step 6, locking in a 16.76% stop-loss frequency and $368 in mathematical friction.
Under session-bounded boundary rules in M220-2, pairing 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder with 200 units across 5 shoes (360 hands) and a 80-unit maximum computes a 16.76% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 6 adverse steps before step-indexed boundary truncation.
| M220 Parameter | 1-2-3-5 (200u) | 5-Shoe dispersion |
|---|---|---|
| 1-2-3-5 Ladder | 1-2-3-5 (4 steps) | Peak 5u multiplier on M220 |
| 200u Stack Window | 360 hands (5 shoes) | Barriers -100u / +50u |
| 80u Ceiling & Ruin | 16.76% ruin vs 42.61% win | Depth 6 steps (2 cap hits) |
| 626u Handle & Hold | 7.35u ($368) | Multiplier 1.74x (combinatorial drift) |
Audit M220-3 inspects the variance-scaled decay-rate of 1-2-3-5 when anchored to 200 units and a 360-hand (5-shoe) schedule: the 80-unit maximum wager restricts recovery at step 6, locking in a 16.76% stop-loss frequency and $368 in mathematical friction.
Under step-indexed boundary rules in M220-4, pairing 1-2-3-5 Four-Step Ladder with 200 units across 5 shoes (360 hands) and a 80-unit maximum verifies a 16.76% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 6 adverse steps before multi-coup escalation truncation.
