I really wanted to believe it but it all depends on the myth and luck.

No, i'm not spiritual, superstitious, or believe in poker gods, myths or whatever. Whatever happens, happens at poker. Any 2 cards can win, likewise any 2 can lose.

Hi.
Welcome to our community. :)
I have been playing poker for 11 years and I am convinced that myths, mascots, happy hands and so on do not exist. If you believe in this, then you probably do not have enough experience. But I believe that our free course will help every player. Try it for yourself.

right. it's not about myths, but only about luck at the table

I don't believe in poker myths, but i have preferred hand(s) like many players.
And i have the subjective impression those hands are best for me, an impression that is not always confirmed by statistics :))

Man, I love it, I haven't changed my image with my son since 2008 when I put it on, sometimes I feel like changing it but then I go back and I don't do anything, I leave it as it is.

Poker myths

Do any poker myths appear in your game? For example "always coming 7" or "Brunson hand", that wins you the pot?


In past home games we would do 7 2 bonuses if someone showed a bluff or won with 7 2 it was pretty popular. Winning with a "One time" request from the "poker gods" was hot as well.

I'd be more inclined to call those superstitions or rather, Stupidstitions. I'm always glad to hear when players talk about their "lucky" hands though because that tells me they are inclined to make more bad decisions based on anomalies or variance rather than logic and rational thinking.

I do like to joke about their being a poker god I call "Gamblor" but there's nothing there that ever guides me in making my decisions when rational and logical thinking are always going to serve you better.

  • You get more bad beats online, i believe in this myth.
  • You have to be a math genius. i really belive in this myth
  • You should practice with play money. i think it s no use playing without money, because when is no stake, the game goes crazy.
  • Poker is game of luck. of course is a game of luck, that's why patience is very necessary to beat your bad beats in your mind
  • Poker is gambling. For some people is galmbling, but not for me.

Myths by definition are something that does not exist, so my answer is "no".
