Hello. You use any rituals, signs, folk methods when playing poker. What, who helps, gives luck in the game. Maybe a black cat, or some kind of witchcraft, a talisman for victory, or something else. I've heard that to be lucky in the game, you should always sit with your back to the moon. I am sure everyone has their own talisman for victory, tell us, please share, if you don’t mind.

To be honest I have never thought something like that can really be helpful :D But I never liked all the religions and beliefs, so probably thats why

I am catholic Christian, and I only believe in God, so no talismans, etc.
If i would be in a very important tournament I think I would prey before, but not in just-for-one playing :)

I don't believe in talismans. I think that feeling good (sleep, healthy food, exercise), discipline, concentration helps better than a talisman.

I also believe in God. And on occasion I always thank him. I don't know, maybe this is not right, because poker is a gamble.
It comes out mechanically, if I win, I always think, thank God.

Yeah, I don't believe in talismans/good luck charms either. Everything I do at the poker table has a reason - a charm of some kind wouldn't be a reason for me and it would just be more to carry around.

Not really a "ritual" in the sense you were probably thinking, but I like to cap my cards with a poker chip - but this has a purpose, I don't want my hand mucked by the dealer when I wanted to play it! ;)

My talisman is luck, and to be more specific, I always hope that my opponents will play responsibly and will not do stupid things.

I don't have a talisman. Everything I have won so far I have won patiently and calmly.

I don't have a talisman, I think the talisman cannot help in the game, the person simply believes in his help.:)

I do not believe in the help of a talisman. It all depends only on yourself and your actions.

I noticed that I had more luck in the game when I put money on my desk. for example between 30 or 40 euros. but I never needed a talisman to win.

My talisman is when I have a day off and I am home alone. But unfortunately this happens very rarely.

My only talisman is positive thinking, many times when I lack a card to complete a ladder or color, I mentally ask that the necessary card come to me, many times this strategy has worked for me

The only talisman I use to win Poker is myself, thinking about having faith in an object or believing that it will help me is not logical. But if it works for those who believe in this, keep it up, the goal is the same, to win, no matter the means.

I do not use such things. Variance is variance and can not be influenced. I just try to play my best game.

Poker remains an intellectual game, where the best mascot will always be the level of your training.
