8-Deck Eight-Pip Card Depletion at 50% Penetration (Super 6 Audit DEP436)

Removing 18 of 32 Eight-Pip Card (Rank-8) cards at 50% penetration of a 8-deck (416-card) shoe leaves 14 Rank-8 cards inside a 208-card stub (DEP436), producing 45.8584% Banker wins, 44.6260% Player wins, 9.5155% Ties, and a 1.4606% Banker house edge under Super 6.

How Eight-Pip Card Depletion at 50% Depth Impacts 8D (Super 6)

In combinatorial record DEP436, depleting 18 Rank-8 cards across 50% of a 8D (416-card) pack leaves 14 Eight-Pip Card cards among 208 remaining cards, setting Banker win probability to 45.8584% and house edge to 1.4606% (Super 6).

For DEP436 (8-deck shoe, 50% dealt), on banker total 3, (dep436) banker draws against every player (8d-50%) third card except 8; removing (dep436·8d-50%) 8s eliminates banker 3's sole standing exception. Holding 14 of 32 Rank-8 cards in a 208-card stub with -0.50 bps rank slope yields 45.8584% Banker, 44.6260% Player, and 9.5155% Tie.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen 18 Eight-Pip Card cards leave a 8D shoe by 50% depth (DEP436), 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 (14/32 in 208 cards); Banker carries a -1.4606% expectation under Super 6.
