Ok, that might sound a bit strange, but poker is a game loaded with folklores. Did you realize that if you are gambling a game with two different decks and you’re asked to select the deck, you should always choose the deck of cards that is furthest from you? Or, how about If you have a streak of bad cards, you need to sit on a hankerchief to break your horrible luck?
