This is the \u2018gambler\u2019s fallacy\u2019: a failure to understand statistical independence. In fact, the chances of hitting either red or black are 50\/50 every time (if \u2013 for the sake of simplicity \u2013 we exclude the zero). Each time the wheel spins, it is a singular betting occurrence; the odds are the same every time and are completely unaffected by the previous spins of the wheel.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Another great example are lottery numbers.

Stainless steel had been invented by Harry Brearley five days earlier and Adolphe Pegoud would be the first man the parachute from an aircraft within 48 hours. In Monaco, at the lavish Casino de Monte-Carlo, it was business as usual. Europe\u2019s wealthy came to gamble and play. Little did they realise, they were about to witness an occurrence that was a 136,823,184 to one shot.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A crowd started to gather around the roulette table, as people realised the ball kept landing on black. In fact, it would land on black for 26 consecutive spins. Only finally hitting red on the 27th spin. It was a great night for the casino. As the ball continued to hit black, more and more people wagered on red. From the 15th black spin, the pots kept increasing in size. After the red had hit, there was disproportionate betting on red. People believed that red was due for a run as well.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>All this is a prime example of feelings trumping logic and the most famous example of the gamblers’ fallacy in action.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>We\u2019ve Got Chemistry&lt;\/h2&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><a href='\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/blog\/news\/gambling-in-asia\/\"'>Gambling has been a form of entertainment for centuries&lt;\/a&gt;, with nearly 70 per cent of the population enjoying at least one punt every year. The paradox of gambling lies in the knowledge that gambling odds work both for and against the player. There is a latent human irrationality to accept the fact that gambling is risky and they won\u2019t win every time.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This is just one of many faulty beliefs that develop, pitting logic against feelings. Superstition is another paradox. There is no factual evidence that blowing on the dice at the craps table increases the likelihood of a successful roll. Studies have shown that players who are allowed to throw the roulette ball are likely to bet more on that spin. In reality: personal human contact does not influence outcome.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Serious About Poker&lt;\/h2&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><a href='\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/video-poker\/\"'>Poker&lt;\/a&gt; is a game where logic and feelings are fundamental. Every top player will understand the statistics of every hand; the probability of drawing a winning card. However, poker is about playing the man \u2013 not the hand. It\u2019s one of the few betting games where a \u2018feeling\u2019 can be a game changer. Every poker face will eventually tell a story and that twitching eyebrow could be the clue to a bluff. Top players like Daniel Negreanu even seem to have a sixth-sense which enables them to read the minds of their opponents.&lt;\/p&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:embed {\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jSfd-8ZteHw\",\"type\":\"video\",\"providerNameSlug\":\"youtube\",\"responsive\":true,\"className\":\"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"} -->\n<figure class='\"wp-block-embed' is-provider-youtube="" is-type-video="" wp-block-embed-youtube="" wp-embed-aspect-16-9="" wp-has-aspect-ratio\"="">\n<div class='\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"'>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jSfd-8ZteHw&lt;\/div&gt;\n<figcaption class='\"wp-element-caption\"'>&lt;\/figcaption&gt;\n&lt;\/figure&gt;\n<!-- \/wp:embed --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>However, casino poker is no different to other card games played on the gaming tables. Just because you have had a run of poor hands doesn’t mean that you are ‘due’ a good one next.
