How to win at the casino - existentialist time wasting

[PsNiBe]

ARGH! They got me! God won! My only regret, is that I didn't flame hard enough...

EDIT: this used to be a fantastic flame battle over an already solved mathematical quandary, and it was so fun I think the flame battle should keep going, so now I will change the quandary to something that can never be solved:

Creationism vs. Predeterminism... which side would you take and why? (If you had to take one.)

This is looking to be interesting. Hopefully, casino players could help ya on the data research.

(for this chart I will be denoting the range 1-12 as "1", 13-24 as "2", and 25-36 as "3")

Range Probability Chart:

Run of 2: 33.333333...% (11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33)
Run of 3: 11.111111...% (111, 112, 113, 121, 122, 123, 131, 132, 133, 211, 212, 213, 221, 222, 223, 231, 232, 233, 311, 312, 313, 321, 322, 323, 331, 332, 333)
Run of 4: 3.703703...% (1111, 1112, 1113, 1121, 1122, 1123, 1131, 1132, 1133, 1211, 1212, 1213, 1221, 1222, 1223, 1231, 1232, 1233, 1311, 1312, 1313, 1321, 1322, 1323, 1337, 1332, 1333,... 2222,... 3333)
Run of 5: 1.23456790123456790...% (possibly the funniest number ever. where'd that 8 go? i mean, everyone else is there.)
Run of 6: about 0.4115%
Run of 7: about 0.1372%

keep in mind that, like with the color streak, you can't separate the numbers into sequences, so the first 2 or 3 numbers of a range streak are likely not to be part of the streak at all. so for example you had a run of 5, well 5 - 2(3) = 3(2) so it was an 11.1%(33.3%) chance that that happened and a 3.703%(11.1%) chance that it will become a run of 6 (i put the safer odds in parentheses).

*looks at the info*

I think my head just 'asploded.

[Chaobo99]

i cant comprehend the numbers -.-..then again im not actually analyzing it >>

[StkDrowsy]

becouse i understood that...........

[Broodstar1337]

I have a better idea. Bring me along and bet the opposite of what I bet.

I've found the trick to it. Highest record of wins straight for me have been 27. Don't ask me, I'm not telling you, and flame me all you want. I just wanted to let everyone know that there IS one, so keep trying.

Just letting you know, I've been looking at patterns for fun on the PSOW cams- they're both resting in the casino. Hope this can help you out a little as well. They'll probably be there quite a lot.

The easiest way to win at a casino is to not bet anything. Saving meseta is a method of win itself.
