Wheel of fortune is definitely bugged (1 in 393,216 occurrence just happened)

I have literally never seen it activate even once, and I've used it over a dozen times. Everyone else I see is complaining about a similar thing.

Edit, new results:

I can 100% guarantee that the RNG is busted. Because my random number generator just flipped (for whatever reason, I don't know) from a low roll to a high roll when I booted up the game just now.

These are the results in the past 2 hours:
5 wheels of fortune in a row (1/4)
3 glass cards breaking in a row (1/4)
Gros michel breaking (1/6)

All consecutive to eachother, the run of "good luck" still hasn't ended though I suspect you get a single number every time the game is booted up so it may end now that I've quit out.

The odds of this happening are:
(1/4)^(5+3) * (1/6)

This comes out to a 0.00025% chance, or in other words, 1 in 393,216

Something is definitely wrong with the RNG and it appears to be seeded when the run starts or maybe when the game is booted up.

Also note: Gros Mochel and the Glass cards broke the first time I used them, every time.

I mean clearly he made it up.

Hey man, you don't see me going around saying that you're made up!
That's rude, dude.
I can personally attest to it being 100% Carfax "No Carfoxery" Certified truefax having witnessed it with my own two eyes, and I'd proudly swear to that upon a stack of baubles in any basketball court in America. You don't wanna mess with me kid. I got the power of Judge Judy and Poker Stars on my side.

There's a Dilbert comic about random number generators and how there really isn't a way to be definite about this. In particular, I'm pretty sure more than 393216 games of Balatro have been played and therefore a 1/393216 chance is entirely reasonable for someone to have come across.
