Action timeline
Model's stated reason
First round with no card data yet, so bet modestly to preserve bankroll while we begin tracking the shoe.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no card data yet; betting conservatively at the suggested level to align with the team and preserve bankroll until we see trends.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no edge info yet; matching teammates' conservative bet preserves bankroll until we track composition.
Model's stated reason
Running count is mildly positive early in the shoe, so a small bump from base bet aligns with team strategy while preserving bankroll.
Model's stated reason
Mild positive count per teammates; small early-shoe bankroll preservation favors staying in sync at 15.
