Depletion matrix entry DEP038 pairs 1D (52 cards) at 25% penetration with 1 removed Four-Pip Card cards (3 left in 39 cards), fixing per-hand volatility at 0.9332 and Banker house hold at 0.8611% (5% Vig).
Removing 4s produces the (DEP038-Rank-4) single largest per-card shift toward (39c) Banker (and away from Player) (DEP038-Rank-4·39c) of any rank in the shoe. Because 1 of 4 Four-Pip Card cards are absent in DEP038 at 25% 1D penetration (39 cards left), per-card sensitivity (+1.19 bps) interacts directly with quarter-shoe 25% penetration depth (DEP038) under standard 5% Banker commission (Rank-4) (0.95:1 payout).
