For a match where the majority of participants rarely consider good luck, there are tonnes of superstitions in poker. When you say that someone was fortunate in that poker tournament they won, be careful of how you say it. For example, if you mention that you were unlucky, your fortune may never change.
Ok, that may sound a bit strange, but poker is a casino game loaded with folklores. Did you realize that if you are gambling a game with two seperate decks and you’re asked to pick the deck, you should always select the deck of cards that’s the furthest away from you? Or, what If you have a run of poor cards, you must settle on a hankerchief to destroy your terrible luck? It is actually considered good fortune to blow through a deck of cards while they’re being randomized.
Some other interesting poker folklores are:
- You can change the run of cards by walking around your chair 3 times.
- The most beneficial chair at the poker table faces the door.
- The worst position has its back to a fireplace.
- When switching spots, you really should always do so clockwise.
- The worst poker card is the four of clubs.
- It’s very unlucky to sit with your legs crossed at the poker table.
- Friday is a awful day for betting on cards.
- The thirteenth is also a horrible day, despite when it falls during the week.
