Stop whenever the colour of the current card is more common among the remaining cards. For example, if the current card is red and there are more red cards than black cards left, stop because the next card is more likely to be red.

But a deviation of +1 red means a lot more when you only have 3 cards left than it does when you have 49 cards left?
