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

This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 has a bead at Row 3 too → red (=).

  1. Column 2 goes down to Row 3, so use Rule 2: look 1 column back, at Column 1.
  2. Column 1 has a bead at Row 3 too → 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.

Small Road Mark #2

This bead is at Row 3. Column 1 has a bead at Row 3 too → red (=).

  1. Column 3 goes down to Row 3, so use Rule 2: look 2 columns back, at Column 1.
  2. Column 1 has a bead at Row 3 too → 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 #2

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

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

Tiger Pair (Single/Double/Twin) (TGPR) Combinatorial Breakdown & Jurisdiction Audit

[TGPR-RULE] Gaming-lab specification TGPR enumerates Tiger Pair (Single/Double/Twin) across 416 cards: Tiered pair side bet paying 4:1 for a single initial pair, 20:1 for two different pairs, and 100:1 for twin identical-rank pairs. Evaluates all four initial cards for single-hand rank pairs (13.34%), double pairs (0.517%), and four-of-a-kind twin pairs (0.041%).

[TGPR-EDGE] Floor audit TGPR tracks a 14.4126% hit rate against the 4:1 / 20:1 / 100:1 paytable, which grades a 12.9410% house hold and 2.640u volatility across Macau, Las Vegas, Marina Bay Sands, and regulated live-dealer studios (TGPR). Because TGPR models card ranks and totals dealt from the 8-deck shoe, scoreboard trends on Big Eye Boy, Small Road, and Cockroach Pig never alter TGPR probabilities.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythSide bets like Tiger Pair (Single/Double/Twin) can be timed using derived-road streaks on Big Eye Boy or Cockroach Pig.
