And there's no accounting for streaks good or bad
I read recently that a vegas RNG cycles a minimum of 100 times per second through 4 billion numbers. That's 400 and some odd days before the cycle starts over. In that cycle there are clumps - some little, some big, and there is no way to predict them.
Sometimes you just have to step back and get out of the 'churn', cuz sooner or later the house edge will eat your wallet if you don't
Varience is in the program, ergo high and low varience slot to slot - the happy little RNG churns away the same for a high risk game as a low risk game.
