how superstitious are you?

As a poker player, I like to believe more in probablity and not so much in luck. But yet I can't help but be superstitious, esp. when I'm playing poker.

For instance, during my biggest tourny win - A song comes on and about a minute into it I double up. I continued to do well while the album played, so I put it on repeat (it was about a 40 min album)... Anyhow, next time the song come on again, I double through AGAIN. So yeah, I totally put the 3minute song on repeat for the next 4 hours.
Crazy? I suppose.

Anyone else do anything a little wacky?

  • I have done the song one many times. I have so many stupid superstitions its absurd. Part of the obsessive compulsive side of me. My main superstition now is the color of my clothes at the table.
    I am in a red phase, as red projects power and high effiiciency. Red is the most frequently used color in national flags, and is the color of the imperial bad ass super guards to vaders cloak color.
    Other than that, sometimes our crew will go to the same restaurant on consecutive sundays or something if the previous week we all made alot of money on sunday.
  • It's bad luck to be superstitious.

  • Oooh what would Jack Jack say? After your victory you get all cocky and think you don't need your toys anymore? You are doomed now.
  • Hey now..

    I still bring the toys.. but that's for... personal reasons

  • I'm not superstitious in the least. That's why every table at the docks I had my coat behind me on the seat. Cell phone in the left pocket. Empire poker hat on backwards. Just far more comfortable that way :) At one point I gave all my stuff to the g/f but it stayed there until the seating began.
