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

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 · DEP112

How Removing Zero-Value Group (10/J/Q/K) at 229 Cards Affects B4 Draw 2-7 Gate (DEP112)

Under combinatorial state [DEP112] (55% penetration, 187 cards remaining), Zero-Value Group (10/J/Q/K) concentration stands at 53/187 (28.34% vs 30.77%), altering how often the Banker 4 active six-card draw window against 2..7 fires.

[DEP112-B] Across remaining coups in [DEP112], fewer Zero-Value Group (10/J/Q/K) (0-point) cards tilt Player 0..5 draw rate by -30 bps and Banker stand rate by 30 bps, though BANKER_TABLEAU[4][5]=true invariably draws a sixth card.

Why DEP112 Card Depletion Never Changes Tableau Law or Derived Road Meaning

[DEP112-C2] Auditioning [DEP112] at depth, Player opens 3 + 5 -> 8 while Banker opens 4 -> 9 across 6c (B in [DEP112]). Across [DEP112] 8-deck shoes, main-bet house edge stays near 1.06% (Banker) and 1.24% (Player), and logging B onto [DEP112] BBPPBBPBPB updates derived roads by Big Road column symmetry.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythWhen Zero-Value Group (10/J/Q/K) is depleted to 53/187 in DEP112, the dealer can choose to stand on a drawing Banker total.
TruthPunto Banco third-card rules are 100% mandatory: BANKER_TABLEAU[4][5] remains true at every shoe depth.
MythDeep shoe penetration at 229/416 cards in DEP112 makes Red on Big Eye Boy mean Banker.
TruthOn Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig, Red (=) always signals repeating Big Road structure and Blue (≠) signals a break.
