Sooner or later you will get 100 heads or tails in a row, a freak result.

Even 20 times in a row is pretty astronomical:/ 100 times in a row, nope, if everyone on this planet was flipping coins from their births to their deaths - most likely (very very very likely) they'd all die before anyone did 100 in a row.
Ask a professional gambler or casino owners or bookmakers if you could flip a head 100 times in a row.

So long as there is a chance of something happening, sooner or later it will, it will be very, very rare but it will happen.

The odds of flipping a head 10 times in a row are only 1/1024, when you consider how many random rolls you must make in Dom3, you are bound to get a 'losing run' every now and then.
