Dependent Events

Once it's gone, it's gone
Draw an ace from a deck and keep it. Now the deck has only 51 cards — and only 3 aces left. The second draw isn't the same problem anymore; the first draw rewrote it. These are dependent events: the first outcome shifts the odds of what comes next.
Dependent = the first event changes the probabilities for the second.
