Default Problem with your book

Holla, I just started reading your book "Small Stakes Hold
'em" by Ed Miller, David Sklansky, and Mason Malmuth. And was sent to this website by the back. On Page 40, Miller talks about "Random and Independent Events." He seems to be suggesting that it is just as likely to not complete a flush draw 20 times in a row as it is tont compelte a fush draw 1 times. This is not rihgt, the odds of you missing a flushes 20 times in a row is much lower than missing it just 1 tim. It would be like roling a 3 sided die 20 times in a row. The odds of not rloling a 1 are much higher if you roll it once, than if you roll it 20 times. Anyone want to explain this?
