Under step-indexed boundary rules in M138-0, pairing Grand Martingale (2x+1) with 75 units across 10 shoes (720 hands) and a 100-unit maximum audits a 94.80% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 7 adverse steps before asymmetric cycle-span truncation. 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 M138 (Grand Martingale (2x+1), 75u bankroll, 720 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.

Matrix cell M138 tests Grand Martingale (2x+1) with a $100 base unit and -38u/+19u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -38u drawdown barrier before completing 720 hands or reaching +19u.
Share of 720-hand trajectories reaching the +19u session ceiling, with 0.50% ending between barriers.
A 100-unit house limit and 75-unit stack cap Grand Martingale escalation after 7 adverse coups.
Derived from 2527u total action (3.51x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
Audit M138-1 tracks the eight-deck footprint of Grand Martingale when anchored to 75 units and a 720-hand (10-shoe) schedule: the 100-unit maximum wager restricts recovery at step 7, locking in a 94.80% stop-loss frequency and $4491 in mathematical friction.
Under absorbing-barrier boundary rules in M138-2, pairing Grand Martingale (2x+1) with 75 units across 10 shoes (720 hands) and a 100-unit maximum measures a 94.80% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 7 adverse steps before bankroll-constrained distribution truncation.

Audit M138-3 maps the bankroll-constrained cadence of Grand Martingale when anchored to 75 units and a 720-hand (10-shoe) schedule: the 100-unit maximum wager restricts recovery at step 7, locking in a 94.80% stop-loss frequency and $4491 in mathematical friction.
Under capital-bounded boundary rules in M138-4, pairing Grand Martingale (2x+1) with 75 units across 10 shoes (720 hands) and a 100-unit maximum documents a 94.80% stop-loss absorption rate, surviving at most 7 adverse steps before variance-scaled profile truncation.
