The odds never stack, so it’s not like you are due a win just because there were so many “nope!”s. It’s always 1 in 4, which is 25% chance (0% in xcom terms).

Don’t judge me… I’ll pick it every time goddamnit!!!
I'll have $4 left in the shop, and it'll be arcana Vs celestial boosters
I'll pick the arcana just because it might have the wheel that might give me a result
3 in 22 chance,followed by 1 in 4 chance,which is msot likely to give 50 extra chips.
vs 3 in 9 chance of a chips + mult boost.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not implying I'm a clever man or anything
90% of gamblers quit right before getting plychrome
Once it worked 4 times in a row for me. So now I never expect it to work ever again.
"IM DUEEEEEEE" I scream as I watch "Nope!" flash up on my screen for the 6th time in a row
Six times in a row is a little less than 18%, so not totally unrealistic
16.666...%. I'll never forget that one.
That'd be 1/6, a value that is close to but not quite (3/4)^6
It worked the first time I did it and I've been chasing my losses since then.
One day It'll work and 5 seconds later I'll die.

I counted and it took no less than 15 tries before it ever worked for me. Ever since then then my rates have improved but I'm still highly skeptical of the "1 in 4" written on the card.
Cavendish goes extinct more than The Wheel works...
Wait this card does more than “nope”?!
