How Eight-Pip Card Depletion at 10% Depth Impacts 6D (5% Vig)

Card-removal benchmark DEP343 measures Eight-Pip Card (Rank-8) scarcity at 10% depth in a 6-deck shoe: 3 removed ranks leave 21 in the 281-card remainder, shifting Banker win share to 45.8646% (1.0192% edge, 5% Vig).

In six-card resolution tree DEP343 (6D at 10% depth, 281 cards left), depleting 8-pip cards also (dep343-rank-8) lowers two-card natural 8 lockouts (281c) when paired with zero-point tens (dep343-rank-8·281c) and court cards; removing 3 of 24 Rank-8 cards (-0.50 bps weight) leaves Banker at -1.0192% EV under 5%.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 3 Eight-Pip Card cards leave a 6D shoe by 10% depth (DEP343), 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-8 stub counts (21/24 in 281 cards); Banker carries a -1.0192% expectation under 5%.
