STAGE 2 STRESS TEST · HK 6-STEP VS FLAT BETTING

Hong Kong 6-Step Cruise vs. Flat 1-Unit Baseline — Two-Shoe Strict Alternation on Even-Money Player Wagers (140-Hand Stress Test)

In non-stationary comparative trial S292-0, running HK 6-Step against Flat Betting for 140 hands of Player 1:1 Chop (chop) on 95 units documents 7.50u vs 1.80u in expected toll and 29.00% vs 7.64% ruin under a 70-unit pit limit. 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.
