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

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

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

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

Cockroach Pig Mark #3

Column 6 has 1 bead. Column 3 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

  1. Column 7 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 6 with Column 3, 3 columns further back.
  2. Column 6 has 1 bead. Column 3 has 2 beads. Different depth → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 6, the one that just finished, with Column 3.

COMBINATORIAL DEPLETION · DEP273

How Removing Three (3) at 341 Cards Affects B6 Draw 6-7 Gate (DEP273)

Composition analysis [DEP273] measures Three (3) scarcity at 341/416 cards: 4 left in 75 (5.33% vs 7.69%) changes arrival rates into the Banker 6 two-value sixth-card trigger against 6 or 7.

[DEP273-B] Thinning Three (3) (3 pts) in [DEP273] produces a -39-bps Player draw delta and 30-bps Banker stand delta; nevertheless, Banker 6 facing 6 always draws a sixth card.
