Action timeline
Model's stated reason
With no information on the fresh shoe, the house edge makes large bets -EV; betting the minimum preserves bankroll until the team can count into a favorable true count and ramp bets.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with count at zero calls for a minimum bet of 5 chips.
Stated reasons appear after the comparison block is revealed. They are model-submitted text, not verified reasoning.
