Internet Poker Superstitions @ Good Luck Charms

[InternetPokerPro]

I realize that they have no basis in fact . . . but I am curious as to what superstitions and/or good luck charms internet poker players subscribe to.

In the spirit of getting things started, mine is that I listen to the same CD and/or artist every day until I have a big losing session. Then I change music the next day and continue the pattern.

It's unlucky to be superstitious.

Superstitions can be good for something like poker because they can keep you focused. Just don't let them get too complicated.

I always wash my hands 7 times before I play, and 7 more after a winning session.....just kidding.

When I am on a big downswing, instead of going on tilt, I just throw my computer through the window. This seems to bring the downswing to a halt.

I have a variety of little good-luck trinkets I picked up on my trip to Japan. I haven't unwrapped most of them. When I get upset after a loss, I open one and it cheers me up.

Never noticed that I did this before I read this thread, but I always light a lilac candle on my desk before I play.
