6-Deck Eight-Pip Card Depletion at 40% Penetration (4% Audit DEP345)

Removing 11 of 24 Eight-Pip Card (Rank-8) cards at 40% penetration of a 6-deck (312-card) shoe leaves 13 Rank-8 cards inside a 187-card stub (DEP345), producing 45.8638% Banker wins, 44.5913% Player wins, 9.5449% Ties, and a 0.5620% Banker house edge under 4%.

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.

FINITE-SHOE ENUMERATION · DEP345

How Eight-Pip Card Depletion at 40% Depth Impacts 6D (4% Vig)

Across 89,520,558,110,592,000 initial 6D permutations, depletion node DEP345 narrows to a 187-card stub (40% depth) holding 13 of 24 Rank-8 cards, where Banker resolves at 45.8638% (-0.5620% EV) and Player at 44.5913% (-1.2725% EV).

Depleting 8-pip cards also (DEP345-Rank-8) lowers two-card Natural 8 lockouts (187c) when paired with zero-point tens (DEP345-Rank-8·187c) and court cards. Because 11 of 24 Eight-Pip Card cards are absent in DEP345 at 40% 6D penetration (187 cards left), per-card sensitivity (-0.50 bps) interacts directly with mid-early 40% penetration depth (DEP345) under reduced 4% Banker commission (Rank-8) (0.96:1 payout).

TABLEAU & SCOREBOARD SEPARATION · DEP345

Third-Card Tableau Sensitivity vs Derived-Road Marks (DEP345 · 6D)

Comparing DEP345 (40% 6D depth, 11 Rank-8 removed, 13 remaining in 187 cards) against fresh-shoe baselines shows how finite-stub variance (0.9359 SD) coexists with a 0.5620% 4% Banker house edge.

  • DEP345 (6D 40%): 187/312 cards with 13/24 Rank-8 (1A).
  • DEP345 (Rank-8 split): 45.8638% Banker, 44.5913% Player, 9.5449% Tie in 187 6D cards (1B).
  • DEP345 (4% Vig EV): -0.5620% Banker, -1.2725% Player, -14.0963% Tie, 0.9359 SD at 40% (1C).
  • DEP345 (6D roads): red/blue marks log Big Road columns, never 13 Rank-8 stub count (1D).
Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 11 Eight-Pip Card cards leave a 6D shoe by 40% depth (DEP345), 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 (13/24 in 187 cards); Banker carries a -0.5620% expectation under 4%.
