Lets say chasing streaks of a specific number- lets say 4 streaks, doesnt matter whether player or banker and not counting ties.
My question is am I more likely to have the expected number of these streaks hit by betting say 70 resolved hands played on many tables, rather than just 70 hands on just 1 table?
Or wouldnt it make any difference at all?

The reason I ask is because I have had people tell me it makes a big difference in the short term.

People will say things. It doesn't matter. Each bet on Banker/Player is -1.06% or -1.24%, no matter what people say. There is no such thing as a streak, there is only what happened in the past and a future that is independent of that past.

There is no such thing as a streak,

every Banker win is a part of a win streak, that length being 1 to <1000 i say
every Banker loss is a part of a lose streak, that length being 1 to <1000 i say

Player bet the same

William Feller talked about streaks - well, he calls them a run
and actually he calls them a recurrent event

Lets say chasing streaks of a specific number- lets say 4 streaks,

and i know you are really after a pattern like PPPP or BBBB
i would rather chase after these runs of length 4 in a shoe

to start the shoe
PPPPB or BBBBP

or more common
BPPPPB or PBBBBP

or at the end of a shoe
BPPPP or PBBBB

My question is am I more likely to have the expected number of these streaks hit

no because
the expected number of these streaks = the average number

and that comes from the distribution
like this for my example
run = 4

average # = 2.28
that is from this sample
       group         middle    freq  freq/100
---------------------------------------------
-0.50 <= x < 0.50 0.00 43442 8.69%
0.50 <= x < 1.50 1.00 113426 22.69%
1.50 <= x < 2.50 2.00 139816 27.96%
2.50 <= x < 3.50 3.00 112273 22.45%
3.50 <= x < 4.50 4.00 59490 11.90%
4.50 <= x < 5.50 5.00 22737 4.55%
5.50 <= x < 6.50 6.00 6848 1.37%
6.50 <= x < 7.50 7.00 1500 0.30%
7.50 <= x < 8.50 8.00 411 0.08%
8.50 <= x < 9.50 9.00 56 0.01%
9.50 <= x < 10.50 10.00 1 0.00%

look how many times the were 0 of these events I was chasing
about 50% of the shoes had either 2 or 3 and not 2.28

what happens in the first shoe when 6 hits happen
the average = 2.28

so if there are 0 in the next shoe or 70-80 rounds
the average is now 3
still not 2.28

play for a distribution, i say
averages will kill those that do not know of the dangers they bring

DUE have fun with streaks!

It's not offensive, I promise. Every gambler should watch the entire episode of "Red Man's Greed."

You aren't the first one to ask this sort of question.

How far you are into the shoe has very little, if any, effect on the probability of, in your case, 4 player wins before the next bank win, or 4 bank wins before the next player win.

Besides - if you jump from table to table without knowing how far into the shoe your new table has dealt, there is no real comparison between the two; if two tables are exactly 100 cards into a shoe (one where you were at from the beginning, and one at another table to which you go), why should one necessarily be more likely to have a streak come up?
