Roulette Law Of The Third

MauiSunset
I just wrote an article about the infamous Roulette's Law of Thirds and it struck me that maybe there are more crazy things about random numbers I should be aware of.
The 'Roulette Law of Thirds' states that if you spin a Roulette wheel 38 times (37 for European but lets just talk about American wheels) the following happens:
1/3 of the 38 numbers are duplicates, triplicates, quadruplicates, and more (about a dozen of them)
1/3 are missing - were replaced by the dupes (about a dozen 'sleepers')
1/3 occur just once (about a dozen)
Go ahead and fill out a MS Excel spreadsheet with the =RandBetween(0,37) with 37 being Green 00 and copy it into 38 rows, or http://www.random.org/integers/ sort them (have to copy them to a notepad to get rid of the formulas and then copy them back to Excel)
You will see that for every 38 numbers generated about 1/3 are dupes, 1/3 are 'sleepers' or 'the sleeping dozen' and 1/3 show up only once.
Of course those numbers mean nothing when you generate the next number or the next 38 or billion but the 'sleepers' and dupes are used to make hundreds of variations of Roulette systems that fail because they are based on this weird idiosyncrasy of random numbers.
But, like good humor, a super phony Roulette system, needs some truth to make it last for 200+ years. Other Roulette websites are full of folks who believe in the 'Sleeping Dozen' and spend a lot of time building systems that always fail but they just can't seem to help themselves.
Is there some math behind this? Does the 1/3 'sleepers' work for a billion numbers generated for a billion slots? (I'm assuming the ratio holds - don't know why)
So, are there other things like this that occur with random numbers that can be the basis for hundreds more super phony Roulette systems? I can't think of any but that's why I'm writing this post.
Thanks for any input..........

Law of the Third is an observed tendency for a third of the numbers on the roulette wheel to not appear during a set number of spins. There are 37 numbers on a single-zero roulette table, but after 37 spins we are likely to see that 24 numbers have landed while 13 – about a third – did not. Law of thirds system – mathematical approach. Many roulette systems that are used when playing in a casino (online), are based on the Law of thirds. This mathematical principle is about random numbers: for 36 spins of the roulette wheel, 24 of the 36 numbers will come up (excluding the zeros). The Law of The Third Roulette System The Law of the Third is a roulette system based on the statistical fact that, after a set number of spins, certain numbers will not have appeared. Any roulette player understands that it is impossible for the roulette wheel to produce in 37 spins all 37 roulette numbers. 37 different numbers in 37 roulette.

The Law Of Thirds Roulette

Can I ask who you write for?
the next time Dame Fortune toys with your heart, your soul and your wallet, raise your glass and praise her thus: “Thanks for nothing, you cold-hearted, evil, damnable, nefarious, low-life, malicious monster from Hell!” She is, after all, stone deaf. ... Arnold Snyder

Maui,
For starters, there is no 'law of the thirds'.
Secondly, each spin of the roulette wheel is an independent event.
There's no reason whatsoever to even test such a system.

Please note: This supposed Rule of Thirds was developed by an Italian researcher in 1968. That means that if it worked the man would now be so rich that he would waste no time with writing articles but would be spending his well earned money on wine, women and song or else he would be off in Monte Carlo (the real one) winning untold sums at roulette and bankrupting the monarchy.
This paragraph is precious:
it's true that the percentage of the 100% of winning does not exist, but it's also true that 'The Law of the Third' is a undeniable truth which its sistemic application guarantees the probability of 67% to win the chosed chance within the first extractive fraction of the related cycle'
67 percent probability of winning at Roulette, providing of course that we are within some extractive fraction of a related cycle since apparently the wheel chooses to go in cycles that somehow differ from each other perhaps on the cosmic plane if we are seated under a pyramid.

I have a little website and YouTube videos that make fun of Roulette systems - you can do a search of my name and Roulette and find me if you wish.

I know that, what I'm asking is if there are other quirks of random numbers that hoards of gamblers now or in the future can spend millions of man-hours and millions of dollars making fools of themselves - I'd love to write about it.

I kind of assumed that the Law of Thirds has been around for 200+ years - I'll do some research and see if I can find the first clown that started this all - kind of like a 'Clown Zero'.
Thanks much guys...........

I can't speak to 'hoards of gamblers', but Ken (mrjjj) has posted quite a variety of systems that he wins with. If you go to posts he started you will find them. They focus on 'sleeping streets', numbers that have hit 3 times recently, numbers that haven't, etc...

Oh I'm well aware of Mr J - he has deleted and modified many of my posts on the websites he administrates; I don't waste my time there anymore; they are true believers and beyond salvation.

I don't care that you wrote this, I'm totally stealing it. Next time I see a group of idiots doing something stupid, I'm going to ask them which one is Clown Zero.
