Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
Big Eye Boy Mark #3

This bead is at Row 2. Column 2 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

  1. Column 3 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 1 column 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.

Small Road Mark #3

This bead is at Row 2. Column 2 has a bead at Row 2 too → red (=).

  1. Column 4 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 2 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.

Cockroach Pig Mark #3

Column 4 has 3 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 1, 3 columns further back.
  2. Column 4 has 3 beads. Column 1 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 1.

COMBINATORIAL DEPLETION · DEP265

How Removing Nine (9) at 291 Cards Affects B6 Draw 6-7 Gate (DEP265)

Penetration profile [DEP265] fixes the shoe at 291 dealt and 125 remaining with 8 Nine (9) cards (6.40% density vs 7.69%), testing sensitivity of the Banker 6 two-value sixth-card trigger against 6 or 7.

[DEP265-B] Depleting Nine (9) (pip value 9) induces a 27-bps shift in Player 0..5 draws and a -17-bps shift in Banker stands; inside coordinate B6-P3(6), the dealer still draws a sixth card.

Why DEP265 Card Depletion Never Changes Tableau Law or Derived Road Meaning

[DEP265-C7] Auditioning [DEP265] at depth, Player opens 0 + 6 -> 6 while Banker opens 6 -> 5 across 6c (P in [DEP265]). Across [DEP265] 8-deck shoes, main-bet house edge stays near 1.06% (Banker) and 1.24% (Player), and logging P onto [DEP265] PPBBPPBBBP updates derived roads by Big Road column symmetry.
