6-Deck Three-Pip (Trey) Depletion at 50% Penetration (Super 6 Audit DEP301)

Removing 14 of 24 Three-Pip (Trey) (Rank-3) cards at 50% penetration of a 6-deck (312-card) shoe leaves 10 Rank-3 cards inside a 156-card stub (DEP301), producing 45.8665% Banker wins, 44.5885% Player wins, 9.5450% Ties, and a 1.4150% Banker house edge under Super 6.

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

Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 2, 2 columns further back.
  2. Column 4 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

Cockroach Pig Mark #2

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

  1. Column 5 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 3 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.

FINITE-SHOE ENUMERATION · DEP301

How Three-Pip (Trey) Depletion at 50% Depth Impacts 6D (Super 6)

Card-removal benchmark DEP301 measures Three-Pip (Trey) (Rank-3) scarcity at 50% depth in a 6-deck shoe: 14 removed ranks leave 10 in the 156-card remainder, shifting Banker win share to 45.8665% (1.4150% edge, Super 6).

Why does Rank-3 carry a +0.65 bps per-card effect in DEP301? Banker total 4 draws (DEP301) on Player third-card 3, and (6D-50%) Banker total 5 stands on (DEP301·6D-50%) Player third-card 3, creating asymmetric sensitivity, and at 50% penetration (10 Three-Pip (Trey) cards left in 156 6D cards), banker wins on totals (dep301-6d) 1–5 and 7–9 pay 1:1 (10/24) while any winning 2-card or (dep301-6d·10/24) 3-card banker 6 pays 50 cents on the dollar.

TABLEAU & SCOREBOARD SEPARATION · DEP301

Third-Card Tableau Sensitivity vs Derived-Road Marks (DEP301 · 6D)

Cut-card protocol at 50% depth in DEP301 (6D, 156 stub cards containing 10 Rank-3 cards) ensures the shoe reshuffles long before Super 6 house hold (1.4150% Banker / 1.2780% Player) is overturned.

  • DEP301 (6D 50%): 156/312 cards with 10/24 Rank-3 (5A).
  • DEP301 (Rank-3 split): 45.8665% Banker, 44.5885% Player, 9.5450% Tie in 156 6D cards (5B).
  • DEP301 (Super 6 EV): -1.4150% Banker, -1.2780% Player, -14.0954% Tie, 0.9354 SD at 50% (5C).
  • DEP301 (6D roads): red/blue marks log Big Road columns, never 10 Rank-3 stub count (5D).
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 14 Three-Pip (Trey) cards leave a 6D shoe by 50% depth (DEP301), 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-3 stub counts (10/24 in 156 cards); Banker carries a -1.4150% expectation under Super 6.
