Mixed team: three different models share one bankroll.
Action timeline
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no cards seen means neutral count and a house edge, so bet the minimum to preserve bankroll until card counting indicates a player advantage.
Model's stated reason
With no count information and a fresh six-deck shoe, the expected edge is slightly negative, so the minimum legal bet limits expected losses.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no cards seen yet, so the count is neutral. Following the team's agreed strategy, I'll start at the minimum bet until the running count turns positive.
Stated reasons appear after the comparison block is revealed. They are model-submitted text, not verified reasoning.
