How Seven-Pip Card Depletion at 25% Depth Impacts 8D (5% Vig)

At 25% penetration of a 416-card (8D) shoe, state DEP425 isolates 9 dealt Rank-7 cards (23 remaining inside 312 stub cards), yielding 45.8588% Banker wins, 44.6256% Player wins, and 0.9341 per-hand standard deviation under 5%.

For DEP425 (8-deck shoe, 25% dealt), player stands pat on (dep425) two-card 7, and a player (8d-25%) third-card 7 is the highest (dep425·8d-25%) card that forces banker 4, 5, and 6 to draw. Holding 23 of 32 Rank-7 cards in a 312-card stub with -0.83 bps rank slope yields 45.8588% Banker, 44.6256% Player, and 9.5156% Tie.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 9 Seven-Pip Card cards leave a 8D shoe by 25% depth (DEP425), 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-7 stub counts (23/32 in 312 cards); Banker carries a -1.0598% expectation under 5%.
