Fun fact, there are some games that actually cheat for you by progressively increasing your chances during a series of failures until you win. Then this resets to the actual probability displayed.

yup xcom actually does this in favor of the player unless you play on the highest difficulty.

Consecutive missed shots your soldier makes adds a hidden bonus chance, consecutive shots hit by aliens add a hidden penalty

Spotify does that as well. People don't like when a song recently played on shuffle gets played again, so Spotify doesn't do that.

You mean even across playlists?

Because if you shuffle a single playlist, of course everything would only appear once.
