Card story
Years of avidly playing cards, I have never gotten a royal flush. I had a 5 card straight flush a total of once.
However a lady sat down beside once and got a royal flush on her very first hand, after I had been playing for almost 3 hours that day. Absolutely I got up from the table and kept on walking.
Right seat, right time!! Amount of time? Nope, didn't matter at all.
Yes, you see that exactly in crypto all the time, but sitting next to someone who won isn't the same of having the cards.
Conditions had to be right.
If one person left the table or another entered at that moment it would have completely changed the outcome.
You are not entitled to a winning hand no matter how much you keep putting in, how long you play. It is a known risk, the difficultly and the odds are known. It's the fact we see others winning that brings people to the table.
No one is playing at a table where people are almost completely out of chips and everyone is cursing at the dealer. No one is going to casino where the former regulars are screaming it's rigged all over the Internet.
They need to see you win and want to win too. But they can't if the conditions aren't right. You can't control the deal, you can only play the cards you are dealt.
Everyone gets a different hand.
People arrive to the table at different times. Some bet more, some bet less.
You just need a chip and a chair and that's your chance.
No seat, no chip, no chance.
Play responsibly.
