Horrible Fortune in Poker

For a game where most players rarely consider luck, there are tonnes of superstitions in poker. When you mention that a player was blessed in that poker tournament they won, be mindful of how you mention it. For example, if you mention that you were unlucky, your luck may never change.

Ok, that might sound a bit strange, but poker is a game armed with folklores. Did you realize that if you are wagering a game with 2 seperate decks and you’re asked to select the deck, you should always choose the deck that’s the furthest away from you? Or, how about If you get a run of terrible cards, you must hang out on a hankerchief to break your horrible luck? It is actually thought of as good luck to blow through a deck of cards while they are being mixed up.

Some other fascinating poker superstitions are:

  • You can change the run of cards by walking around your chair 3 times.
  • The luckiest chair at the poker table faces the entry.
  • The worst position has its back to a fireplace.
  • When switching spots, you should constantly do so clockwise.
  • The unluckiest poker card is the four of clubs.
  • It is very unlucky to cross your legs when sitting at the poker table.
  • Mon is a awful day for gambling on cards.
  • The 13th is also a horrible day, regardless of when it falls.
