... then all outcomes are equally likely. Nothing more, nothing less. You can always re-define the outcomes so that they are not all equally likely.

For example, on a single roll of a fair die, the numbers 1 to 6 are equally likely. But redefine the events so that

Event A = Prime number

Event B = composite number

Event C = neither prime nor composite number

then P(A) = 1/2, P(B) = 1/3 and P(C) = 1/6 : events with unequal likelihood.

What is the definition of theoretical probability?

Theoretical probability is the probability of an event when all outcomes are equally likely. With theoretical probability, you determine the probability by dividing the number of ways the event can occur by the total number of equally likely outcomes.
