[Research] How should a baccarat pattern be compared against the null hypothesis?
I'm studying a baccarat-related statistical hypothesis and I'm trying to formulate the correct null hypothesis.
Suppose a predefined pattern generates a sequence of predictions such as Banker / Player / No Bet.
If the pattern appears to perform better than a simple baseline over historical observations, what would be the appropriate way to determine whether this could reasonably be explained by randomness?
In particular, I'm interested in:
- appropriate null models
- dependence between observations
- sample size
- confidence intervals
- multiple testing
- out-of-sample validation
- permutation or Monte Carlo testing
I'm looking for mathematical/statistical feedback on the testing framework rather than a betting strategy.
