rushy: There is totally strategy involved. It is 50/50, yes, but there are TONS of ways to bet. You can hedge, you can cover, you can bank, and you can occasionally take a winning risk.

Waffle: Waiting until you lose a lot does NOT help you, and if it does, it is purely luck. That is Gambler's Fallacy. A long losing streak does not make the chance of a win greater or smaller than 50/50. It will always be 50/50.

Up another couple hundred thousand.

Rank 3 greatest increase, and I started out in the hole this morning, technically speaking.

Ok, basically, Gambler's Fallacy is like this.

Say I flip nine heads in a row. Sounds pretty rare, right? It is!

Now let's say I ask you to come flip a coin. I don't tell you that I've already flipped it 9 times.

Are you going to tell me that your flip is heavily weighted towards tails just because I managed to hit heads so many times and that somehow that streak has to end?

The answer is no -- it will always be 50/50. If an event has already happened, you cannot factor it in. What has happened has already happened with 100% certainty and can longer be included in any calculations -- you can ONLY look at the present onward.

I'm not factoring in BS weighting schemes or flip methods -- I'm talking pure randomization here using fair objects

Lonewolf: What kind of methods are you referring to, out of curiosity?

Waffle: I'll tell you for 1 million credits.

^That is actually a very fair price considering you can earn a ton more with the strategy. I am just impatient.
