Re: Problem with your book

But that doesn't make any sense. The odds of missing it 20 times in a row are very low. Are you telling me that if you miss a flush draw 99 times in a row by some crazy strike of probality, on the 100th time its the same chance? If that was true, than probability wouldn't work. I used to be a roulette player in the casino, I won some, and lost some, but overall I'm up. The reason why is I knew to only bet colors, and only bet a color that hadn't come up in a while, because the odds of red not coming up 10 times in a row are low. Why do you think they have a history chart at the tables?

Wow...just wow. Seriously man, this is very basic probability. History has no affect on future outcome. This is true for both poker and roulette. Just be happy you have gotten lucky in roulette.
Oh, and they have a history chart at the tables to make people such as yourself think it matters.
