Message: [QUOTE="Roller, post: 7219812, member: 52965"] I don’t really have any lucky charms, but I definitely have a few small rituals — more for focus than superstition. I like to take a moment before a session to clear my head, check my mindset, and remind myself that the goal is to make good decisions, not chase luck. That said, I’ll admit there’s a fun side to superstition in poker. Everyone’s got that one seat or table where they seem to run hot, and it’s hard not to notice patterns. I don’t really believe in “hot seats” or “cursed spots,” but I get why people do — when variance plays tricks on you, it’s easy to assign meaning to the randomness. So while I don’t believe the chair has any power, I do believe the player’s mindset does. If you think a spot is lucky, you’ll probably play more confidently. And that confidence can make all the difference. [/QUOTE]
