I feel outcomes are typically determined by chance and randomness, meaning that each game is independent, and past results do not have any effect on future outcomes. For example, in a slot machine or a roulette wheel, each spin is random and unaffected by previous spins. However, in some games such as blackjack, the decisions made in previous hands can have a slight effect on the odds of winning or losing in future hands,
Are past results going to have effect on gambling future outcomes ?

You are absolutely correct in stating that outcomes in games of chance are typically determined by randomness and probability. This concept is known as the "law of large numbers," which basically states that the more times an experiment is conducted, the closer the results will come to the expected probabilities.
In games like slot machines and roulette, where each outcome is independent of the previous ones, the probability of winning or losing remains the same with each spin or round. This means that past results have no effect on future outcomes in these types of games.
However, in games like blackjack or poker, where there is an element of skill involved, the decisions made in previous hands can influence the odds of winning in future hands. In blackjack, for example, the cards that have already been dealt can affect the composition of the remaining deck, which can in turn impact the probabilities of certain outcomes.
It is important for players to understand the concept of randomness and probability in gambling and to make informed decisions based on this understanding. While past results may not directly affect future outcomes in games of pure chance, it is still crucial to approach gambling with caution and responsible behavior.

Trends in sports betting can be used to forecast future results. A trend is an event that has occurred more than once and has a high chance of happening again when handicapping a game. This suggests that sometimes the past can affect the way things turn out in the future.
In gambling, particularly in games of chance like roulette or slot machines, past results do not influence future outcomes due to the independent nature of each event. Every spin of a wheel or pull of a lever is random, meaning previous results do not alter the probabilities of future ones. This principle is often referred to as the "gambler's fallacy," where players mistakenly believe that past outcomes can predict future results. However, in games involving skill, such as poker or blackjack, while past results can inform strategy and decision-making, the inherent randomness still plays a significant role in determining individual outcomes.
No, past results do not affect future outcomes in gambling, especially in games like Baccarat, roulette, or slots where each event is independent. This is due to the concept of independent trials, meaning each hand, spin, or roll has its own set odds, unaffected by previous events.
To a large extent it does not affect since gambling deals mostly on the understanding of it unique concept of randomness and probability. So the thing is that past results may not directly affect future outcomes in games of pure chance, it is still responsible gambling all the way
