STAGE 2 STRESS TEST · D'ALEMBERT VS FLAT BETTING

D'Alembert Pyramid vs. Flat 1-Unit Baseline — Three-Shoe Adverse 8-Run on Even-Money Player Wagers (216-Hand Stress Test)

Head-to-head matrix S209-0 subjects D'Alembert (+1 on loss / -1 on win) and Flat Betting (1-1-1-1 constant unit) to 216 hands of Player 1:1 Streak (streak) with 140 units and a 90-unit roof, benchmarks 5.36u versus 2.77u in mathematical house hold and 16.01% versus 8.20% ruin. Because every 8-deck coup is statistically independent under Even-Money Player Side (1.235% edge) (1.2351% edge), progression rules alter drawdown speed and table-cap collisions without changing per-hand expectation.
