Within absorbing-barrier horizon M104-0, a 30-unit treasury backing Martingale Doubling for 144 hands (2 shoes) faces a 50-unit bet cap that computes 94.80% ruin exposure, 19.36% target attainment at +8u, 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 M104 (Martingale Doubling, 30u bankroll, 144 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 M104 tests Martingale Doubling with a $25 base unit and -15u/+8u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -15u drawdown barrier before completing 144 hands or reaching +8u.
Share of 144-hand trajectories reaching the +8u session ceiling, with 0.50% ending between barriers.
A 50-unit house limit and 30-unit stack cap Martingale escalation after 5 adverse coups.
Derived from 253u total action (1.76x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
Horizon matrix M104-1 inspects how Martingale (1-2-4-8-16-32-64) behaves inside a 30-unit session budget across 144 coups, showing that a 50-unit pit limit and 15-unit floor generate a 94.80% drawdown-trigger rate alongside 3.80u in expected 8-deck vigorish.
Within capital-bounded horizon M104-2, a 30-unit treasury backing Martingale Doubling for 144 hands (2 shoes) faces a 50-unit bet cap that verifies 94.80% ruin exposure, 19.36% target attainment at +8u, and 0.50% time-limit expiration.
