For a game where the majority of gamblers occasionally consider good luck, there are tons of folklore in poker. When you mention that someone was lucky in that poker tournament they captured, be careful of how you say it. For example, if you say that you were unlucky, your luck may not change.
Ok, that may appear to be a bit strange, but poker is a casino game armed with folklores. Did you know that if you are gambling a game with two different decks and you’re asked to choose the deck, you should always pick the deck of cards that is furthest from you? Or, how about If you have a streak of terrible cards, you must settle on a hankerchief to break your bad luck? It’s certainly thought of as good fortune to blow through a deck of cards while they are being randomized.
Some other interesting poker folklores are:
- You will be able to alter the run of cards by walking around your chair three times.
- The luckiest chair at the poker table faces the door.
- The worst spot has its back to a fireplace.
- When switching spots, you should always do so clockwise.
- The most detrimental poker card is the four of clubs.
- It’s very unlucky to sit with your legs crossed at the poker table.
- Fri is a horrible day for wagering on cards.
- The thirteenth is also a terrible day, despite when it falls during the week.
