1-Deck Four-Pip Card Depletion at 70% Penetration (5% Audit DEP042)

Removing 3 of 4 Four-Pip Card (Rank-4) cards at 70% penetration of a 1-deck (52-card) shoe leaves 1 Rank-4 cards inside a 16-card stub (DEP042), producing 45.9640% Banker wins, 44.5203% Player wins, 9.5157% Ties, and a 0.8545% Banker house edge under 5%.

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

This bead is at Row 2. Column 2 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

  1. Column 4 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 2 columns back, at Column 2.
  2. Column 2 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 2 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

Cockroach Pig Mark #2

Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 1, 3 columns further back.
  2. 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.

How Four-Pip Card Depletion at 70% Depth Impacts 1D (5% Vig)

Quantitative proof DEP042 documents 1D rank depletion at 70% depth: 3 exited Rank-4 cards leave 1 of 4 in the 16-card stub, generating 45.9640% Banker wins (-0.8545% EV under 5% Vig) and 44.5203% Player wins.

Tracking DEP042 across 16 remaining 1D cards (70% depth) shows that removing 4s produces the (dep042-rank-4) single largest per-card shift toward (16c) banker (and away from player) (dep042-rank-4·16c) of any rank in the shoe. With 3 Rank-4 cards gone (+1.19 bps unit sensitivity), Banker expectation is -0.8545% (5% Vig) vs -1.4437% on Player.

  • DEP042 (Rank-4 split): 45.9640% Banker, 44.5203% Player, 9.5157% Tie in 16 1D cards (5B).
  • DEP042 (5% Vig EV): -0.8545% Banker, -1.4437% Player, -14.3589% Tie, 0.9377 SD at 70% (5C).
  • DEP042 (1D roads): red/blue marks log Big Road columns, never 1 Rank-4 stub count (5D).
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 3 Four-Pip Card cards leave a 1D shoe by 70% depth (DEP042), Big Eye Boy red or blue marks show whether Banker or Player will win next.
TruthDerived-road red and blue marks only compare Big Road column lengths and never track Rank-4 stub counts (1/4 in 16 cards); Banker carries a -0.8545% expectation under 5%.
