I was playing Vegas Strip BJ yesterday on autoplay. I managed to lose 25 units, which was my stop loss level, in 36 hands. I had a look in my playcheck log, and I found this losing streak including some hands before and after those 36.
52 hands, won 7 (including 1 BJ), tied 4, lost 41, total loss 35.5 units, 4.22SD below expectation.
The probability of losing this much or more in 52 hands is about 1 in 120000 (including some correction for the small sample size). The chi squared value is about 26.9, the probability of the value of chi squared with 2 degrees of freedom being greater than or equal to 26.9 is about 1 in 700000. Can anyone top this?
My luck turned later and I made a small profit in the end.
