Moreover, that's not how probability works in independent events.

It'd be like saying "I flipped coin A 1 billion times and got half a billion heads, so now that I'm flipping coin B 100 times, I probably won't get any more heads."

It should be fairly obvious that you can say the exact same statement about tails, and get a completely contradictory statement.
