Within stochastic horizon M118-0, a 150-unit treasury backing Martingale Doubling for 720 hands (10 shoes) faces a 100-unit bet cap that evaluates 94.80% ruin exposure, 19.74% target attainment at +38u, and 0.50% time-limit expiration. 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 M118 (Martingale Doubling, 150u bankroll, 720 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.
This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).
Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 1 stopped exactly one row above this bead.
This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).
Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 1 stopped exactly one row above this bead.
Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).
Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 1.
Matrix cell M118 tests Martingale Doubling with a $100 base unit and -75u/+38u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -75u drawdown barrier before completing 720 hands or reaching +38u.
Share of 720-hand trajectories reaching the +38u session ceiling, with 0.50% ending between barriers.
A 100-unit house limit and 150-unit stack cap Martingale escalation after 7 adverse coups.
Derived from 3449u total action (4.79x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
Horizon matrix M118-1 audits how Martingale (1-2-4-8-16-32-64) behaves inside a 150-unit session budget across 720 coups, showing that a 100-unit pit limit and 75-unit floor generate a 94.80% drawdown-trigger rate alongside 51.81u in expected 8-deck vigorish.
Within drawdown-weighted horizon M118-2, a 150-unit treasury backing Martingale Doubling for 720 hands (10 shoes) faces a 100-unit bet cap that tracks 94.80% ruin exposure, 19.74% target attainment at +38u, and 0.50% time-limit expiration.
