The Fallacy of the maturity of chances is a common mistake among gamblers.
Some gamblers always think past events affects future outcomes.
For example, if a coin is lands heads up several times, some people
Think it's more likely to land tails up next.
But each coin flip is independent and the probability of heads or tails is always 50/50
i had to search what was the fallacy of the maturity of chances but it turns out it’s just another name for the gambler’s fallacy which is what it’s most commonly called as far as i know
anyway this is what drives gamblers a lot of the times the possibility of being “close to the win” and when they win it proves their point and they do it again when it’s just probably coincidence
