Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

With probability equal to 70.3% yes (with probability 34.3% more than one), with 29.7% no.

Poisson random variable: 1
Average rate of success: 100000/82347=1.21437

Adjust accordingly, when difficulty changes.
