The Due Theory at the Online Casino
 You
probably have heard about the due theory at the online casino.
Some people might refer to the due theory as the gambler’s
fallacy. It is where gamblers believe that something is due
to happen. Whether it is a number, a card, or even heads or
tails, the due theory says that something is overdue to happen.
The problem with the due theory is that it is false.
Gambling is all about the numbers. The bottom line is that
the house has the edge. It doesn’t matter how many times
something has happened there is no reason that the opposite
has to happen next time. The simplest example of how to illustrate
the due theory is to flip a coin. If heads comes up five times
in a row then the due theory says that tails is due to come
up next. In reality that is not true as the chances are still
50-50 on the next flip. You can take this due theory and apply
it to roulette, craps, video poker, baccarat and practically
every other online casino game.
The problem with the due theory is that it can get gamblers
into all kinds of trouble. People will watch the roulette wheel
and after five or six reds or blacks they will bet the opposite
way. The problem with doing that is that there is no such thing
as a number or color being due as the wheel has no memory.
The due theory sounds great, is fun to follow, but in the long
run it won’t win you any money at the online casino.
