This week I have had 4 of a kind twice, and a Ace hi str.flh. Does this mean next week has to be bad?

I can't tell if you're just joking, but in case you're not, the answer is no. Each hand is dealt independently of the one before it and past "luck", good or bad, will have no effect on your "luck" for the next hand. You are bound to run into a string of bad cards at some point though, if you play long enough.

Oh no, I believe you about the hands! I just wasn't sure if you needed to know if the next week was going to be bad or not.

Hi Rick

No....Past events do not have any bearing on future events....If you flip a coin and it comes up heads 9 times in a row....the chance of it coming up heads on the 10th flip is still 50-50!

Gentlemen, I believe that luck is real , the past does controls the future. The plane must takeoff before it can crash. One must be born before one can die. OK, I'M KIDDING, but I will continue to ware my RED BASEBALL CAP.

Roy,

If a coin was flipped 9 times a row, and it did land heads each time. I would be sure the next flip would also be heads. That is until, I looked the coin over to insure it was not a "double-headed" coin! But I still would not bet my money on the outcome. Even with my red baseball cap on.
