    That's comparable to a flipped coin landing heads 6-7 times in a row. Stranger things have happened.

    It's actually approximately 10 times rarer than getting heads or tails 7 times in a row.

    this is probably the most trivial possible aspect of variance that ive heard someone complain about

    Getting not AA 1450 times in a row.. (220/221)^1450=0.00139345
    Flipping heads 7 times in a row.. (0.5)^7=0.0078125

    About 5.6x less likely..
