They say when a guest strolls into a Casino for the first time to gamble, they are blessed with precious beginner's luck.
Then, once the streak goes kaput, there may be a need to walk away from the tables.
Of course, it is wholly possible to conjure up a little magic with the help of a lucky charm or two!
With that in mind, here is a sampling of wives's tales and superstitions which may put 'ya on the right track when you're down on your luck!
For starters, just as you're walking out the door of your bedroom at home (or at your hotel suite) be sure to turn the light on. According to a superstition, this will draw a "pot" of the coin of-the-realm to your humble abode.
Wear red underwear when you're placing your bets. The racy underwear may just trigger a ballsier sexier attitude which may go far with your betting technique at the gambling table.
Carry dice in your pocket. Be careful not to stroke 'em too much, though, or folks may think you're playing a little pocket pool underneath the poker table.
Where a charm in the shape of a horn (the horn of plenty) around your neck or on a wrist bracelet.
Place a mojo bag in your breast pocket out-of-sight (as close to your beating heart as possible) to attract positive money vibrations.
If your hot streak "cools down", then dash off to the rest room and take a dump. Don't know why this works, but it does, by golly.
When you're in the throes of a winning streak "go with it".
Don't bet on a horse at the races if the owner changed the animal's name.
Never count your cash while you're still gambling (it stops the flow of moolah dead in its tracks).
Money borrowed from a friend is luckier to bet with than your own.
Wear a piece of dirty laundry when you stop in to the Casino - especially if you intend to play a round-or-two of poker - in spite of the fact the gamblers all around you may turn away in disgust. Maybe that's the idea (to distract them from the task at hand?).
Always stroke the screen of a slot machine before plugging in coins and hitting the play button.
Using the arm on the slot machine is luckier than using the automated "repeat bet" button.
Rub a Buddha's belly for good luck. There is one in the lobby of the Aria Hotel where you can do just that. In fact, any bills you place on the coveted statue may result in winnings tenfold.
Oh, by the way, I expect a 10% cut.
Just kidding!
