I have a question regarding probabilities that has always confused me
it seems to me to be a believer but please don't hesitate to correct me
so lets have a coinflip. . It has been said that going contrary the previous result doesnt mean shit... so it lands heads and going tails will not net me a greater probability?
But when you factor in the probabilities of streaks it doesn't make sense
by way of example when I flip a coin 10 times. . The likelihood of it landing heads 2 days in a row is 85.93%... so gambling on tails will offer far better probabilities when watching it as a streak... but should I view it as one outcome then convinced its still a 50/50. . As there's two sides of this coin...
to me its an interesting paradox. . Let it land heads 3 times from this 10 flips and I'll bet . . Theres only a 25ish% probability of it landing heads . .
Hmmm...
