1. Spilling Water Behind You
For the Serbs, good luck in gambling means to spill water behind your back. Since water is smooth and fluid, it’ll allow fortune to flow right back to a person. Just remember – the casino staff won’t be happy if you do this right at their entrance hall.
2. Break Dishes Before You Start
Some from Greece and Denmark smash plates – in the privacy of their own hotel rooms, of course – before heading out for a night at the casinos. They believe that doing so will allow them to encounter a mighty fortune so if you’re looking to score a huge jackpot, then you might want to ask your waiter for a few plates along with your take-out.
3. Bring A Lucky Charm
You might spy people at the slot machines pulling on the lever with their right hands while holding a good-luck charm in the other. Gamblers are notorious for being fond of lucky charms and are known to bring a wide range of them inside a casino, ranging from a horseshoe to a rabbit foot.
4. The Color Red Is Lucky
Go to any casino in Las Vegas and it’s not uncommon to find that guests hailing from China are wearing red clothing. That’s because the color has a very significant role in Chinese culture and they typically see it as a sign of luck. But besides wearing red, the Chinese also refrain from betting on the number 7 as they consider it to be an unlucky number.
5. Don’t Shave And Shower
For most of us, shaving on Tuesdays, washing your hair on Thursdays, and trimming your nails on Saturdays are the norm but for some gamblers, doing so is akin to begging for bad luck.
