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.

How Two-Pip (Deuce) Depletion at 40% Depth Impacts 6D (4% Vig)

Removing 11 of 24 Rank-2 cards by the 40% mark of a 6-deck shoe (DEP291, 187 cards left) leaves 13 Two-Pip (Deuce) cards and adjusts conditional probabilities to 45.8658% Banker, 44.5892% Player, and 9.5449% Tie under 4%.

Tracking DEP291 across 187 remaining 6D cards (40% depth) shows that depleting 2s shifts the (dep291-rank-2) probability of banker converting a (187c) two-card 4 or 5 into (dep291-rank-2·187c) a winning three-card 6 or 7. With 11 Rank-2 cards gone (+0.52 bps unit sensitivity), Banker expectation is -0.5581% (4% Vig) vs -1.2766% on Player.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 11 Two-Pip (Deuce) cards leave a 6D shoe by 40% depth (DEP291), 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-2 stub counts (13/24 in 187 cards); Banker carries a -0.5581% expectation under 4%.
