8-Deck Two-Pip (Deuce) Depletion at 50% Penetration (Super 6 Audit DEP382)

Removing 18 of 32 Two-Pip (Deuce) (Rank-2) cards at 50% penetration of a 8-deck (416-card) shoe leaves 14 Rank-2 cards inside a 208-card stub (DEP382), producing 45.8610% Banker wins, 44.6233% Player wins, 9.5157% Ties, and a 1.4553% 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.

How Two-Pip (Deuce) Depletion at 50% Depth Impacts 8D (Super 6)

Finite-shoe specification DEP382 tracks Rank-2 removal at 50% depth in 8-deck play: with 14 of 32 Two-Pip (Deuce) cards left in the 208-card stub, Tie incidence is 9.5157% and Banker expectation settles at -1.4553% (Super 6).

Tracking DEP382 across 208 remaining 8D cards (50% depth) shows that depleting 2s shifts the (dep382-rank-2) probability of banker converting a (208c) two-card 4 or 5 into (dep382-rank-2·208c) a winning three-card 6 or 7. With 18 Rank-2 cards gone (+0.52 bps unit sensitivity), Banker expectation is -1.4553% (Super 6) vs -1.2377% on Player.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 18 Two-Pip (Deuce) cards leave a 8D shoe by 50% depth (DEP382), 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 (14/32 in 208 cards); Banker carries a -1.4553% expectation under Super 6.
