I was reading a book that talks about how you should let your current "luck" influence your play .... meaning that if you have missed your last 5 draws ... you should not go for your 6th because your running cold ...( this is regardless of the fact that you are getting the right odds to call) i think this is bs but id like some opinions

Also, if you are walking through a casino and see that the ball has landed on black five times, black is a sure thing.

Actually, I remember reading something akin to this in Supersystem. DB or BB wrote that if they win a big pot, he would always play the next hand within reason. I think the reasoning was a little different though. I think they are trying to get you to build up table image when you are getting a hot streak of cards. Also, assuming you lose, which is probable, it gets some money back to the losers so they can keep paying (i mean, playing) happily.
