For a match where most participants occasionally consider good luck, there are tons of folklore in poker. When you say that a player was blessed in that poker tournament they won, be careful of how you mention it. For example, if you mention that you were unfortunate, your fortune may not change.

Ok, that may appear to be a bit strange, but poker is a game armed with folklores. Did you realize that if you’re playing a game with two different decks and you are asked to pick the deck, you should always pick the deck of cards that is furthest from you? Or, how about If you get a run of bad cards, you need to settle on a hankerchief to destroy your terrible luck? It’s actually considered good luck to blow through a deck of cards when they are being randomized.

A few other fascinating poker superstitions are:

  • You will be able to alter the run of cards by going around your chair 3 times.
  • The luckiest position at the poker table faces the entrance.
  • The worst spot has its rear to a fireplace.
  • When altering seats, you need to constantly do so clockwise.
  • The most detrimental poker card is the four of clubs.
  • It is very unlucky to cross your legs when sitting at the poker table.
  • Fri is a bad day for gambling on cards.
  • The 13th is also a bad day, regardless of when it falls during the week.
