Not exactly true.. like I said, try flipping a coin and getting 5-6 consecutive results. It's not very likely. Yes, a flip is still 50%, but it's not exactly that black and white when dealing with the statistics of the outcome.

It CAN happen, it's just after so many times, the odds are very against it being the same again.

If that mathematics of it all doesn't convince ya, just watch the boards for 30 minutes or so. It's not common for it to go above 5.
