Whats the probability of genie casting a poison spell on my rogues in a ST?

My friend played and he always got poison on him.

Thanks
there are 6 dark speels genies can cast at you.
so, the probability is 1/6.
so then why my friend always got poison.i myself saw it when he was playing!
bad luck.
If the target is already affected by the spells a Genie can cast (except disruption, since its effect stacks), then the Genie will "select" another spell to apply. Meaning that if the shrews had Weakness, Curse, Delay, Confusion and zero defense then the shrews would get poisoned for sure.
also spells that wouldn't affect that specific unit will not be cast.

Exception, if the spell has been reflected onto another stack, it may cast even if it the creature is immune to it (like delay on a modern golem, for example).
It not specified as to how often will a genie cast a particular spell, nor does it have any specific calculations for it (like we have for luck). Its completely random. And like Dusk said, the probability can be calculated to be 1/6. But just like you can have 3 luck in a row, you can also get 3 poison spells by a genie in a row. But surely, its not possible.
But surely, its not possible.
I mean, surely, it doesn't always happen. Your friend was just too unlucky I guess :)
Thanks.
