As for slot machines, I'm not old enough to use them (nor am I old enough to go in bars, to clarify), but even I know that you haven't got any better chances of winning no matter how many times someone's pulled the lever. |

I guess it is the type of song that people either love or hate. It definitely won't be one of those songs that have people talking about it for years to come, but that doesn't stop me liking it now. It sort of reminds me of that Womack and Womack song "Teardrops". It was also one of those love it or hate it songs. Oh dear I have almost contradicted myself by talking about it so long after it was first released.

You're lucky! They were one hit wonders late 80's. "Teardrops" was a truly dreadful song that even google has pushed to the outer most limits of its memory.

Generalize about what? And actually wouldn't you stand a better chance if for the last three hours the machine didn't hit. I mean, thats jsut the odds, the more you do it the better chances you have of hitting that low percentile of "jackpot"?

No, I believe the odds are the same every time you pull. It's not the kind of thing where it goes off every 10,000th pull or anything. The casino fellas want you to think they're better, but that's just to get you to spend more. |
