Other Weird Stuff You Didn’t Know
There are bucket loads of interesting stories in online gaming. Here’s just a couple of weird and interesting facts that would blow even the most snootiest know-it-all. Did you know that if you add up all the numbers on a Roulette wheel, it comes to 666, and that’s why it’s known as the Devil’s Game? Or that on the stock market, blue chip companies are called that, because in a casino a blue chip is worth more than the red or white chips? Well yeah, now you know. Or how about dispelling some urban myths? The next time someone tells you are more likely to be struck by lightning than to win the lottery, you can tell them it has been mathematically disproven in 1997. An American study showed that in the year 1996 alone, 1,136 people won at least a million dollars playing the American lottery, while only 91 people were killed by lightning the same year. Huh, how’s that for an urban myth? Although we generally don’t recommend holding onto a lightning pole to change the mathematics.
Useful Weird Stuff You (Probably) Didn’t Know
Ok, there are also some facts about gambling you probably didn’t know before and which could also come in handy. The Gambler’s Fallacy is that idea that a game’s result is affected by previous results – and this is actually false. For example, if you roll an odd number on a dice 5 times, then you’d imagine the next roll would finally give you an even number. Wrong. Ok, so while in the very long term picture, the probability does balance out, each roll of the dice is its own event and it’s actually quite common to see longish runs of one kind of result. What this means is that you shouldn’t place your next bet based on what happen on the last roll. Similarly, with jackpots – doesn’t really matter if it’s video pokies or progressive jackpots, many players like to choose a jackpot that hasn’t paid out in a while, thinking that it’s like a pot of boiling water and that because it hasn’t paid out in so long, it should payout soon. Well, that’s also only partially true because jackpot do payout, but pokies – and for that matter, all online casino games except for live dealers – are controlled by a random number generator in a computer. This means that it’s really random. You could win 2 jackpots in a row playing the same game, or it could take days or months before you hit it.
