Luck is cyclical, in the long run everyone should get about the same share of good hands. Nevertheless i would like my share at the late stages of the tourny
Nothing that you take with you will actually bring you any luck and most likely you will develop some kind of tell if you are using a card protector i.e if you are folding or not and frankly i do not see any real use of them. Ipods it is a big no as far as i am concerned as poker is a game of incomplete information and you can use any extra pid of information by listening to what other players have to say. If you really pay attention u will be amazed to how much info other players give without even knowing it. A good advice would be to keep your mouth shut
and your ears open
Now thats just me , while i do use some speach play in my game, i do however realize that some players may use ipods in order just to shut out that element of the game. The eyes do give out tells , and some times you can litteraly see the fear in the others eyes , so shades might not be a bad idea ....
To take this a step further i would say anyone who has a favourite hand and that is not :as: ah (any suit would do) is just being irrational. You can take jack ten , kings , queens or whatever your favourite hand or your lucky hand is and i ll take ACES every single time. Dont be in denial . Yet one stands to lose a lot with aces , as you should always remeber you are just holding one pair , so knowing when to fold them post flop ,especially when there is enough warning from the sequence of play is a good advice. Do not get carried away and just because you are holding aces and put all your chips in! Take a minute , think about it, you might be losing and actually if they are cracked you will be in terrible shape, most usually drawing to the 2 remaining aces in the deck.
