Think your number or color has to hit soon? The longest recorded streak of one color in roulette in American casino history happened in 1943 when the color red won 32 consecutive times. In a row. The people convinced black had to hit next were absolutely right. Eventually.
Interestingly, I wrote a quick simulation of this, and can get to 29 in a row rather quickly, but to get to 32 it took several minutes:
