> It's suspicious when it lands on something that people might be biased towards. Eh, this only makes sense if you're incorporating information about who set up the experiment in your statistical model. If you somehow knew that there's a 50% probability that you were given a fair coin and a 50% probability that you were given an unfair coin that lands on the opposite side of its previous flip 90% of the time, then yes, you could incorporate this sort of knowledge into your analysis of your single trial of 200 flips. | ||||||||

If you don’t have any notion of how likely the coin is to be biased or how it might be biased then you just can’t do the analysis at all. | ||||||||
