STAGE 2 BANKROLL MATRIX · CONTRA D'ALEMBERT · 100U / 5-SHOE

Contra D'Alembert Press — 100-Unit Bankroll & 5-Shoe (360-Hand) Risk-of-Ruin Matrix

Case M315-0 dissects the sequential Contra D'Alembert Press (+1 on win / -1 on loss) 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 37.86% ruin rate while measures an average stake progression-curve of 1.62x and 7.03u ($352) 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 M315 (Contra D'Alembert Press, 100u bankroll, 360 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.

Big Road B is Banker, P is Player Roads under it Red (=): repeating Blue (≠): breaking
Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
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 #2

Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 2, 2 columns further back.
  2. Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

Cockroach Pig Mark #2

Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 6 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 5 with Column 2, 3 columns further back.
  2. Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 5, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

Contra D'Alembert 100u combinatorial excursion Across 360 Hands (M315)

In drawdown-weighted benchmark M315-1, running Contra D'Alembert across 360 deals with 100 units and a 80-unit maximum wager evaluates 583u of total handle, 7.03u in commission-weighted drift, and a 37.86% probability of exhausting the 50-unit drawdown buffer.

Case M315-2 audits the multi-coup Contra D'Alembert Press (+1 on win / -1 on loss) 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 37.86% ruin rate while quantifies an average stake ledger of 1.62x and 7.03u ($352) in theoretical house-edge toll.

  • Cell M315 rule: lock the -50u stop on your 100u Contra D'Alembert stack across 360 hands.
  • Matrix M315 verifies 7.03u ($352) in house hold over 583u of Contra D'Alembert action.
  • Scoreboard check M315: Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig use red for repeating symmetry (combinatorial excursion) and blue for pattern breaks—never for Banker or Player.
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythBringing 100 units to a 5-shoe session lets Contra D'Alembert Press overcome the 1.058% Banker house edge.
TruthNo bankroll size alters per-hand expectation: over 360 hands, Contra D'Alembert generates 583u in action, 7.03u in expected loss, and a 37.86% stop-loss ruin rate.
MythDerived road colors on the scoreboard tell Contra D'Alembert bettors whether Banker (red) or Player (blue) is due during a 360-hand run.
TruthOn Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig, red indicates repeating column structure and blue indicates breaking structure; neither color represents Banker or Player.
