Busting Casino Myths – One Last Time

We have been looking at some of the myths about casinos that John Grochowski has presented in his article. This would be the last installment of this series. We have talked about blackjack and roulette, now how about poker (arguably the most popular card game these days)?

Poker: Changing seats can change your luck. There’s nothing any more magical about the order in which the cards come out in poker than there is in blackjack or any other card game. If you’re changing seats because you’ve been getting bad cards and you think moving will bring you better hands, well, good luck to you.

Now, there are perfectly legitimate reasons to change seats. If you’re playing at home and a seat opens that’s closer to the refrigerator, by all means, grab it. If you’re next to a smoker and see clearer air across the table, go for it.

There are legitimate poker reasons, too. If you see a player at the table who you think you can take advantage of from a different betting position, that’s a move-worthy reason. If you’re on the other end of the stick, and a player betting before you has you on edge, change seats.

But if you think another seat will bring better cards … well, there’s as much chance your old seat will get better cards as that your new one will. Past deals have no effect on those in the future.

I totally agree with this point. Changing seats does have its benefits as any decent poker player would know that the position at the table can affect game play. However, if you want to change seats just because you want better cards is nothing but a superstitious move!
