Composition-dependent shoe analysis
The standard game uses six decks. Enter the remaining cards by value and color to calculate Refait at 31, house advantage, the EV of all four wagers, Couleur/Inverse sensitivity and the effect of removing one card.

Per coup, including 32–40 ties
Expected value of wagers
per unit wageredNoir and Rouge have the same expected value. Couleur and Inverse also depend on the color distribution by value.
Coup outcomes
Effect of removal on the house edge
Change in house advantage after removing one card of the indicated value. Negative values reduce the edge; positive values increase it.
Couleur / Inverse sensitivity
Value-specific coefficient measuring the effect of black/red imbalance. Results are in percentage points.
Cards used to finish exactly at 31
Exact distribution of the length of one row conditional on finishing at 31.
Essential rules for reading the results
Noir is the first row and Rouge the second; the total closest to 31 wins. A tie from 32 to 40 voids the coup; a Refait at 31 is modeled by its half-stake loss equivalent. Couleur and Inverse depend on the color of Noir’s first card relative to the winning row. To connect EV, variance and capital, also use the bankroll and risk-of-ruin calculators.
