How is it that when you flip a coin 10 times, the likely hood that it’ll land on heads 10 times in a row is extremely small but the likely hood that it’ll land on heads is 50/50 if it already landed on heads 9 times? I get that it’s a closed system and its roughly 50/50 for every coin flip but my brain is just telling me that it should be a higher chance that it would land on tails instead of heads. How does this work?

It sounds like you fully understand the gambler’s fallacy because you’ve just explained it and you’re experiencing it.
Are you then asking how does the brain think that it has a high chance of landing on tails?
