Bench notes.
Install, odds and game guides for the DonutSMP rig mod: blackjack rigging, paper game tiers, and Fabric setup.
Install, odds, timing and the mistakes that get a session flagged.
Where to start
If you have never installed a Fabric mod, start with the install guide and stop there. A jar in the wrong profile is the cause of almost every "the panel will not open" message, and no amount of slider tuning fixes it.
Once the panel opens, pick one game. Blackjack is the cleanest to learn because the hand history is short and you can see a bad setting after twenty hands. The paper game is the most visual and the least forgiving of a mid-reveal change. Coinflip is the fastest and the easiest to over-tune.
A reasonable first session
- One table, one profile, one stake level
- Win rate between 65 and 72 percent, never above 80 on the first night
- Tier caps set before the first paper game roll, not after a run of legendary tiers
- A loss limit and a win limit written down before the first bet
- Stop the session at whichever limit hits first
The reason for the discipline is not moral. It is that a rig produces an edge over a sample, and a session that runs long enough to double the sample is also long enough to be counted by somebody else.
Questions
Do I need all the guides?
No. Read the install guide, then the guide for the one game you actually play. The rest are reference.
How long does setup take?
About five minutes if Fabric Loader is already installed, and fifteen if it is not.
What if the panel does not open?
Nine times out of ten the jar is in the wrong profile or the wrong mods folder. Check the launcher profile before changing anything else.
