Big Eye Boy Mark #3

Column 2 has 3 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 3 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 2 with Column 1, 1 column further back.
  2. Column 2 has 3 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 2, the one that just finished, with Column 1.

Small Road Mark #3

This bead is at Row 4. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, more than one row above → red (=).

  1. Column 3 goes down to Row 4, so use Rule 2: look 2 columns back, at Column 1.
  2. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, more than one row above → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 1 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

Cockroach Pig Mark #3

Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 3 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 6 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 5 with Column 2, 3 columns further back.
  2. Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 2 has 3 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

COMBINATORIAL DEPLETION · DEP341

How Removing Ace (A) at 341 Cards Affects P0-5 vs B-Stand (DEP341)

Tracking [DEP341] across 341/416 dealt cards leaves 4 remaining Ace (A) cards in the 75-card stub (5.33% vs baseline 7.69%), reshaping probabilities for the Player 0..5 fifth-card draw rate versus Banker 6..7 stand rate.

[DEP341-B] Point value 1 (Ace (A)) directly feeds two-card sums: depleting it alters Player draw likelihood by -46 bps and Banker stand frequency by 34 bps, while Banker 2 vs P3=0 always draws a sixth card.
