Imagine yourself rolling a dice. There are 6 sides, each with a different number, meaning that each number has a 1 in 6 chance of showing up.
Now let's use an example with only two options. Let's say 5 of the 6 sides have a 2, and the other side has a 1. You would be correct in saying there are only two options, but that does not mean there is a 50/50 chance of each one happening. If you rolled the dice 60 times, you would find that you get 2 about 50 times and 1 about 10 times, thus, there is a 5/6 chance of getting a 2 and a 1/6 chance of getting a 1.
Oh, and by the way, I remember this thread from a while ago.
Every time you roll the die, there's a 50/50 chance you get a 1.
You either do.
Or you don't. By your logic, if I roll it 100 times, I will get a 1 50 times and something else 50 times, correct? Please, go ahead and try this and see what happens.
