The Law of Third Part 2

The Law of Third Part 2

In part 1 of our discussion we have explained the basics of the law of third.

In part 2 we want to execute an experiment for the examination of this law.

Each month since June 2000, we have published a complete week
of the authentic spin history of Table No. 1 of the Casino "Spielbank Hamburg"
in the SPINS section of our homepage.
We have used these published spins here.
You can crosscheck the spins with our SPINS section or check with Spielbank Hamburg.
In our experiment we have examined 37 rotations ( rotation meaning a complete cycle of 37 consecutive spins of a specific roulette wheel) , in each case beginning with the first spin of the day.
(results for a double zero wheel with 38 numbers would be slightly different, of course)

The following table shows these 37 rotations in chronological order.

In the left column of the table are the dates of the rotations beginning with 2000-12-01 and ending with 2001-05-02.
The spin run follows the horizontal lines.
In the far right column the frequency of the different come numbers is shown.
This frequency ranges from 19 to 27 different numbers per rotation.
The average is 23.5 numbers per rotation.



The bottomline of the above table shows a very interesting phenomenon:
the Law of Third is also valid if we read the table spin by spin, from top to bottom, e.g. if we check for the frequency of the come numbers for the first spin of the day, for the second spin of the day etc. .
The frequency and the deviations are the same as in the actual spin runs.
The frequency ranges from 20 to 29 different numbers and the average is 23.7 numbers per "cross rotation".
In a later article we will further discuss this phenomenon, that will lead us
to the concept of the "personal permanence".
In our introduction we have stated that roulette is pure statistics! We think that the Law of Third is some proof for this statement. You can take any rotation out of a permanence and you will get the same results all over again. You can take every second or third spin and after 37 second or third spins you will still get the same results.

The table below is very much selfexplanatory:
we have listed here how often every number came out per rotation.
The deviation ranges from low 27 to high 46 appearances, whereas 37 would be "standard".
