Roulette

Another trip to the city of casinos in the east coast - atlantic city. This time with shinq cuz she's finally 21! Armed with a strategy, we headed to the hilton roulette table and got a pleasant surprise because the minimum bet was only $2. We were all in to lose $300 each for the day based on our strategy. So yeah we lost money, but we lost only a fraction of that. And somehow I felt a sense of accomplishment despite the outcome cuz we've finally proven to ourselves that no matter how we strategized, there's still that element of luck that we can't go against. We could only improve our odds of winning, but the expected outcome according to stats is zero and the probability of us winning the next turn is always slightly less than 0.5.

I doubt I'll be heading to AC again anytime soon without an even more impressive strategy. The only reason why I went back this time was cuz I just needed to test my new strategy out. But hitting 11 numbers of the same kind on the table is purely bad luck heh. And so I lived to tell a story of probability to my future math students haha. :)
