I've haven't played every form of gambling game, but in every one of them I've played, when I bet and other players bet, winning or losing those bets was based on the conditions we set. As I tried to point out to Boney in another thread, gambling is timing and what appears to be a great bet like in the Blackjack example, the bad timing of another player changed the outcome. His reply "but over time it equals out", but just like you I wasn't talking about over time.
"Jammy is irrelevant"
And to most MM and PB players his odds are irrelevant. Why do we need make complex calculations when with a little common sense and grade school math, anyone can see a group of 35 numbers has a better chance at matching 3, 4, 5 numbers than the other group of 21?
I have a program that was updated every week until last year and now if I want to analyse any of the games, I have to manually enter the results so it's not up to date. However it still has years of data and the hit/skip charts breaks down how many times each number repeated, skipped one drawing, two, etc. In every game all the number were drawn more times within the last 9 or less drawings then the totals of all the other 10 or more skips. So basically each number in the most recent group of 35, when they are drawn, over 50% of their hits are within nine drawings.
That doesn't mean we should expect to see it every other drawing, but it should average better than once in 12.
