In my case I just get my amulet of luck haha.. I'll put it in my pocket hoping to get more luck to win a game, even though it looks weird I still used it. Even in exams, lottery, I even put it as a decoration in the car to avoid accidents lol.
no harm of course if someone do a lot of superstitious things , it is our rights to believe on it or not.
Not sometimes but all the times it looks ridiculous and i don't know why people believe in superstition at all and they attach that to gambling, i suspect most of the addicts use that as an excuse to borrow more money to gamble.
Superstition is somewhat close to theories that we know, though superstitious beliefs do not have any connection into science or any mathematics solution to prove it correct or even closely correct. The elder or older people said those things because it might happen coincidentally or maybe they just made it up and now being passed upon to people, but a lot of people now are thinking straight unlike the ancient times.
