For a match where most players rarely consider good luck, there are lots of superstitions in poker. When you say that a player was lucky in that poker tournament they captured, be mindful of how you say it. For instance, if you say that you were unlucky, your chances may never change.

Ok, that may sound a bit strange, but poker is a game loaded with folklores. Did you know that if you’re playing a game with two seperate decks and you are asked to choose the deck, you should always select the deck that’s the furthest away from you? Or, what If you get a run of bad cards, you need to settle on a hankerchief to destroy your terrible luck? It’s actually thought of as good luck to blow through a pack of cards while they’re being mixed up.

Some other fascinating poker superstitions are:

  • You can change the run of cards by going around your chair three times.
  • The luckiest spot at the poker table looks at the entrance.
  • The worst seat has its rear to a fireplace.
  • When changing spots, you really should always do so following the clock.
  • The most detrimental poker card is the 4 of clubs.
  • It’s most unlucky to cross your legs when sitting at the poker table.
  • Fri is a poor day for playing cards.
  • The 13th is also a terrible day, despite when it falls.
