Removing 2 of 4 Five-Pip Card (Rank-5) cards at 50% penetration of a 1-deck (52-card) shoe leaves 2 Rank-5 cards inside a 26-card stub (DEP049), producing 45.9576% Banker wins, 44.5268% Player wins, 9.5156% Ties, and a 1.2623% Banker house edge under Super 6.

Card-removal benchmark DEP049 measures Five-Pip Card (Rank-5) scarcity at 50% depth in a 1-deck shoe: 2 removed ranks leave 2 in the 26-card remainder, shifting Banker win share to 45.9576% (1.2623% edge, Super 6).
Fewer 5s in the (DEP049-Rank-5) stub reduce Banker third-card improvements (26c) from 3 to 8 and (DEP049-Rank-5·26c) from 4 to 9. Because 2 of 4 Five-Pip Card cards are absent in DEP049 at 50% 1D penetration (26 cards left), per-card sensitivity (-0.84 bps) interacts directly with mid-shoe 50% penetration depth (DEP049) under Super 6 no-commission rules (Rank-5) (winning Banker 6 pays 0.50:1) (DEP049·Rank-5).

Even at 50% penetration in DEP049 where 2 Rank-5 cards have exited a 1D shoe (2 left in 26 cards), derived-road red and blue entries measure structural regularity on the Big Road—not whether Banker (-1.2623% EV, Super 6) or Player (-1.4307% EV) is favored next.
