'If you flipped a coin 100 times and all you got are heads you'
By starting the sentence with if, you are selecting the occurrence to look at.
If you said I am about to look at the results of this coin toss that happened yesterday, if it is all heads then I am going to assume it was not random, then you are making the claim before you have seen the results. You can still be wrong, but the chances of you being wrong is the rarity of the event.
