Good luck charms
I know in the long run luck doesnt really matter, but in the short term it does to some extent. I was wondering if anyone had any good luck charms that they use/carry with them, and does it affect you psychologically if you dont have it with you?

Yes, but he dulls the edge a little before use. Everytime I see his photo, He is drinking.

I found that rubbing my hands on my girlfriend's behind worked well, but my wife took issue.

Re: Good luck charms
I protect my cards with a craps die that I picked up at the Mirage gift shop. I've had winning sessions with it and losing sessions with it. I forgot it last time I went and had a winning session.
Clearly such things are silly. There may or may not be value in having a "trademark" like that. Anonymity may be more valuable if you play at the same place over and over. But I find a certain bit of confidence in always having the one (Ace) up over my hole cards (except when I have KK [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) -X |

Re: Good luck charms
I have a "lucky chip" that I bought on ebay. I know that it is just a token and luck doesn't play part on my game, but it serves a couple of purposes.
I use it to hold my cards on the table. Regardless of whether I am going to play or fold. It helps me make every hand a "routine", so I don't do anything different when I have AA or 72o. It is also my equivalent of looking like a dork with sunglasses. People usually ask to see it, then look at me like I am on crack for having a lucky charm. The table image of being a dork who needs luck hasn't hurt me yet. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |
