STAGE 2 STRESS TEST · OSCAR'S GRIND VS FLAT BETTING

Oscar's Grind 1-Unit Cycle vs. Flat 1-Unit Baseline — Two-Shoe High-Tie Stall under EZ Baccarat Dragon 7 Push (152-Hand Stress Test)

Head-to-head matrix S263-0 subjects Oscar's Grind (hold on loss / +1 on win) and Flat Betting (1-1-1-1 constant unit) to 152 hands of EZ High-Tie (high-tie) with 110 units and a 75-unit roof, quantifies 2.91u versus 1.63u in mathematical house hold and 17.84% versus 6.96% ruin. Because every 8-deck coup is statistically independent under EZ Baccarat 3-Card 7 Push (1.028% edge) (1.0284% edge), progression rules alter drawdown speed and table-cap collisions without changing per-hand expectation.
