STAGE 2 STRESS TEST · 1-3-2-6 VS FLAT BETTING

1-3-2-6 Four-Stage Sequence vs. Flat 1-Unit Baseline — Four-Shoe 12-Run Volatility under No-Commission Banker 6 (288-Hand Stress Test)

Benchmark S156-0 quantifies the absorbing-barrier progression-curve between 1-3-2-6 and Flat Betting over 288 hands of 4-Shoe Streak: with 180 units, a 100-unit cap, and 1.4579% house edge, ruin settles at 15.10% vs 9.17% while house-edge-anchored decay-rate reaches -41u. Because every 8-deck coup is statistically independent under No-Commission Banker 6 (0.50:1 on 6) (1.4579% edge), progression rules alter drawdown speed and table-cap collisions without changing per-hand expectation.

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.
