So, you still don't understand. If I was the only miner and my CPU was the device, I would still find a block ever 10 minutes after 3 weeks. Do you understand what that means? My CPU at 4 GHz does AT MAXIMUM 4 million calculations per core. That's at most 8 digits. How could I possibly win a block every 10 minutes with only 8 digits of computing power? Because the number range is variable compared to other participants. The more computational power the more chance. But even with less computational power, the chance is never zero.

To put it another way you don't need to be faster than a bear to evade one. You just are more likely to when running away in a group when others are slower than you.
