Abstract
Jacob Bernoulli is a very well-known Swiss Mathematician. Around 328 years ago, Jacob Bernoulli worked out on the game of chances (from 1684 to 1689) which forms the background of the theory of probability. His book ‘Ars Conjectandi' was published by his nephew, another great Mathematician Nicolaus I Bernoulli and brother Johann Bernoulli in 1713. The aim of this article is too high light Jacob Bernoulli's initial contributions to the theory of probability and Law of Large Numbers.
