STAGE 2 BANKROLL MATRIX · LABOUCHERE · 200U / 2-SHOE

Labouchere Split-Line — 200-Unit Bankroll & 2-Shoe (144-Hand) Risk-of-Ruin Matrix

Across 144 eight-deck hands (2 shoes), absorbing-barrier simulation M344-0 for Labouchere Split-Line on a 200-unit bankroll models a 13.17% risk-of-ruin figure, audits 4 ceiling-collision events against the 50-unit cap and a 43.62% mid-corridor finish rate. 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 M344 (Labouchere Split-Line, 200u bankroll, 144 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.

Big Road B is Banker, P is Player Roads under it Red (=): repeating Blue (≠): breaking
Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
Big Eye Boy Mark #2

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.

Small Road Mark #2

Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 2, 2 columns further back.
  2. Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

Cockroach Pig Mark #2

Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 6 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 5 with Column 2, 3 columns further back.
  2. Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

MATRIX CELL M344 · STOP-LOSS & STOP-WIN GEOMETRY

Labouchere 200u bankroll-constrained threshold Across 144 Hands (M344)

Cell M344-1 computes the bankroll-constrained excursion of a 200-unit Labouchere plan over 144 hands: because each hand remains independent at 1.058% Banker edge, scaling stakes toward the 50-unit ceiling elevates total turnover to 501u and sets ruin at 13.17%.

Across 144 eight-deck hands (2 shoes), capital-bounded simulation M344-2 for Labouchere Split-Line on a 200-unit bankroll inspects a 13.17% risk-of-ruin figure, verifies 4 ceiling-collision events against the 50-unit cap and a 43.62% mid-corridor finish rate.

50u Ceiling Collisions & Labouchere Turnover (2 Shoes)

Cell M344-3 verifies the discrete-time turnover of a 200-unit Labouchere plan over 144 hands: because each hand remains independent at 1.058% Banker edge, scaling stakes toward the 50-unit ceiling elevates total turnover to 501u and sets ruin at 13.17%.

Across 144 eight-deck hands (2 shoes), commission-adjusted simulation M344-4 for Labouchere Split-Line on a 200-unit bankroll tabulates a 13.17% risk-of-ruin figure, tracks 4 ceiling-collision events against the 50-unit cap and a 43.62% mid-corridor finish rate.

  • Cell M344 rule: lock the -100u stop on your 200u Labouchere stack across 144 hands.
  • Matrix M344 tabulates 7.05u ($176) in house hold over 501u of Labouchere action.
  • Scoreboard check M344: Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig use red for repeating symmetry (bankroll-constrained threshold) and blue for pattern breaks—never for Banker or Player.
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythBringing 200 units to a 2-shoe session lets Labouchere Split-Line overcome the 1.058% Banker house edge.
TruthNo bankroll size alters per-hand expectation: over 144 hands, Labouchere generates 501u in action, 7.05u in expected loss, and a 13.17% stop-loss ruin rate.
MythDerived road colors on the scoreboard tell Labouchere bettors whether Banker (red) or Player (blue) is due during a 144-hand run.
TruthOn Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig, red indicates repeating column structure and blue indicates breaking structure; neither color represents Banker or Player.
