If you can't see the patterns, then pseudorandom appears random to you. If you can see the patterns, then pseudorandom is not completely random to you, because, well, you can see some patterns where there should be none.
For example, some people might think this is a random pattern:
0101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101
Other people would say it likely is not, because it is missing some patterns, namely: 00, 11, 000, 111 and so on. Another way to look at it is that it appears that the next number is always the opposite, when the opposite should only appear 50% of the time (assuming it's a coin flip).
Some gamblers are under the impression that results are meaningless, but in the real world analyzing results is very useful, it is called the field of "statistics".
Among gamblers, baccarat players are perhaps the most aware that analyzing results can be fruitful. Of course good blackjack and poker players are also watching for patterns where there should be none.
