Ok everyone just about 90 percent of the people I play live games with always have their certain routine, lucky charm, hat, etc that they always do before/during a game. What about you? Live game? Online? Personally I always have a card that is the Ace of Clubs my mom gave it to me before she passed saying I would always be her "Ace"

I like to eat a good meal after a good night's sleep. Then I will walk around the casino for a little bit and get a general feel for the atmosphere. I usually wear jeans and a sweatshirt with the hood up and sunglasses(like Phil Laak). I dont think the sunglasses or hood are necessary for everyone but it works for me. Or sometimes I dress a little nicer with a nice polo or shirt and the same sunglasses. Depends on my mood. (Also always with my lucky buffalo nickel as my card protector).

For me it's really basic. I just try to be well rested and well fed. Sometimes I will crack open a poker book and read a few pages to get into gear but I don't do that all the time.

I don't have any lucky charms or lucky socks or anything else like that. I do like wearing a beanie and shades but it isn't a must. I just like having them on.

Lucky charms can lead you down a superstitious path that will loose you money. I always play rested and sometimes listen to "The King of Wishful Thinking" before a game. Either that or Neil Diamond...anything but Lady Gaga really.

When I am in an online tournament and it gets to the first break, I go get a glass of cold Arizona Green Tea. It is my "cashing" good luck charm. When I am at the casino I tend to only have losing sessions when I am bored at the table. Like if people are playing slow, or the dealer is going slow. If I get bored I start playing like crap (like 2 days ago I called a $95 allin preflop with 34os just to see if I could win against QQ) and it doesn't usually end well.
