Big Road B is Banker, P is Player Roads under it Red (=): repeating Blue (≠): breaking
Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
Big Eye Boy Mark #3

This bead is at Row 4. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, more than one row above → red (=).

  1. Column 2 goes down to Row 4, so use Rule 2: look 1 column back, at Column 1.
  2. Column 1 stopped at Row 2, more than one row above → 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 #3

Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 3 has 1 bead. Same depth → red (=).

  1. Column 6 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 5 with Column 3, 2 columns further back.
  2. Column 5 has 1 bead. Column 3 has 1 bead. Same depth → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 5, the one that just finished, with Column 3.

Cockroach Pig Mark #3

This bead is at Row 2. Column 3 stopped at Row 1, one row above → blue (≠).

  1. Column 6 goes down to Row 2, so use Rule 2: look 3 columns back, at Column 3.
  2. Column 3 stopped at Row 1, one row above → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 3 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

COMBINATORIAL PROOF · CELL B7T5

Cell B7T5 Analysis: Banker 7 (3+4) Facing Fifth-Card 5 (Value 5)

Under [B7T5], Banker holds two-card total 7 (3+4) while Player draws fifth-card 5 (point value 5) onto an initial 0–5 total. Across those six legal Player starts, [B7T5] produces three-card Player totals of P0+5->5, P1+5->6, P2+5->7, P3+5->8, P4+5->9, P5+5->0.

Because [B7T5] falls outside the draw window for Banker 7, the dealer stands pat on 3+4 (7) at 5 cards: across the 60 (P0..P5 × unpulled 6th card 0..9) branches in [B7T5], standing yields 30 Banker wins, 20 Player wins, and 10 ties without wraparound risk.

FLOOR PROCEDURE & SIDE BETS · B7T5

How Cell B7T5 Governs Dragon 7, Panda 8, and Scoreboard Tracking

In 5-card cell [B7T5], Banker 7 (3+4) never takes a sixth card, so 3-card Banker Dragon 7 is impossible while Player reaches 3-card 8 (Panda 8) whenever P=3 draws 5 (5).

Once [B7T5] resolves (30B/20P/10T across 60 branches), the winning side logs to the Big Road on shoe PPBBBBPBPB.
