My friend, you must be young or unexposed. In my life’s experience, which included some time in the third world and a few moments behind the old iron curtain, I have found that the human ability to be stupid is exceeded only by it’s ability to believe as fact that which is unsupported by
evidence.

The question is what do you trust more: your luck or statistics. A lot of people trust their luck much more. That is why casinos and sport betting companies are for.
