It happened to me before in series of bets too.  The casino had provable fairness so there is that.  Maybe it is simply luck.  You can hit 3 jackpots in a row, mathematically it is possible, is this not what the gambler fallacy is all about?  You can play with 50 percent chances of winning and lose 20 times in a row.  It is often ALL about luck.

Sure, but the odds of that happening are pretty low... that's 0.5^20, which is a 0.0000954% chance. That's incredibly low.

The most reasonable thing would be to be skeptical about claims like this.

Sure, it can happen, but most likely not.
