COMBINATORIAL DEPLETION · DEP079

How Removing Five (5) at 104 Cards Affects B4 Draw 2-7 Gate (DEP079)

Within shoe segment [DEP079] at 104 cards out, only 20 of 32 initial Five (5) cards remain inside 312 unseen cards (6.41% vs 7.69%), modifying the Banker 4 active six-card draw window against 2..7.

[DEP079-B] Removing 5-point Five (5) cards adjusts Player's 0..5 draw incidence by -32 bps and Banker's standing share by 20 bps; once B=4 faces fifth-card 4, the rulebook draws a sixth card.
