Lucky Charms in Poker

It is unusual you might think that seasoned poker players who learn the logic and skill of the game very carefully, could entertain the notion that some type of inanimate object may somehow bring them fortune, and of course there really isnt any basis for this in logical thinking, so why do we often see people with different lucky charms and the most outlandish of things set upon their cards when they are playing? I think all of us in some way or other take notice when we happen to be wearing the same shirt as we did last time we played and won a tournament or we may have something that we kept with us and then had a similar amount of good luck.

I think this could mostly be attributed to coincidence of course, but even I, have had my own experiences of this when I used the same first deck of cards I ever bought to play poker with my friends. Having only just discovered poker we often played five card draw which is largly a game of luck, for some reason though I always seemed to be fortuitous when using my own deck, there was nothing extraordinary about that particular deck, they just seemed to give me the cards I needed more often than they didnt. I played with that deck for around two years until they got too worn to use anymore, and I still wonder when buying a new deck of cards if they might hold the same magic in them, but alas, they never do.
It is probably just a fluke that I seemed to get a lot of luck with my previous deck of cards, or a trick of the mind, perhaps I was merely remembering more of the good hands than the bad, but I still feel such lucky trinkets and habits have their place in poker. Even if your charms dont actually bring you luck as such, they may serve the purpose of giving you a little extra confidence in some way and perhaps do help your game along, after all, I know I personally, play better poker when I am in a positive frame of mind. So if you feel that you have something which brings you luck in your poker games, whether it be at home or in casinos or wherever, by all means bring it with you, you never know what effect it might have, even if the effects are superficial and of your own minds making.
