Within stochastic horizon M386-0, a 75-unit treasury backing Oscar's Grind 1-Unit Cycle for 72 hands (1 shoes) faces a 40-unit bet cap that measures 11.87% ruin exposure, 42.34% target attainment at +19u, and 45.79% 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 M386 (Oscar's Grind 1-Unit Cycle, 75u bankroll, 72 hands). Big Road and Bead Plate show Banker (red) and Player (blue); derived roads record structural symmetry.
Column 2 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

Matrix cell M386 tests Oscar's Grind 1-Unit Cycle with a $25 base unit and -38u/+19u absorbing boundaries.
Probability of hitting the -38u drawdown barrier before completing 72 hands or reaching +19u.
Share of 72-hand trajectories reaching the +19u session ceiling, with 45.79% ending between barriers.
A 40-unit house limit and 75-unit stack cap Oscar's Grind escalation after 6 adverse coups.
Derived from 109u total action (1.51x average wager) multiplied by the 1.0579% 8-deck Banker edge.
Horizon matrix M386-1 maps how Oscar's Grind (hold on loss / +1 on win) behaves inside a 75-unit session budget across 72 coups, showing that a 40-unit pit limit and 38-unit floor generate a 11.87% drawdown-trigger rate alongside 1.36u in expected 8-deck vigorish.
Within drawdown-weighted horizon M386-2, a 75-unit treasury backing Oscar's Grind 1-Unit Cycle for 72 hands (1 shoes) faces a 40-unit bet cap that documents 11.87% ruin exposure, 42.34% target attainment at +19u, and 45.79% time-limit expiration.
