I've been playing Solitude for years, I can play up to 20 games a night, with cards. And, let's call it freaky, or an unexplained mystery, every month, for a few days, never fails, I'll play the game and hit 52, game after game after game, until it's almost boring, knowing I'll ace out the next game. Then? The rest of the month, I may have to wait 15 games to hit 52. What do you make of this?

I thought at first it had to do with the Full Moon, but no, that's not it! This month the series of wins came with hardly any moon.

Probabilities?

If my statistics courses weren't long forgotten, I could calculate the probability of a run of X wins in a series of Y games. Without a lot more data (and better math skills than mine) it's impossible to say whether something weird is going on, or not.
