Superstitions of players from different countries

While traveling around the United States, I once found myself in a casino in Las Vegas and sat down at a table with a woman of about fifty. Before each roll of the dice, she carefully kissed the same chip and quietly whispered something. I could not resist and asked why she was doing this. She said that she had been doing this for 20 years and that her grandmother taught her that “luck is a woman, you have to persuade her.” I remembered that. Later, while looking through materials on the topic, I came across an excellent article that describes such habits from the point of view of cultural differences — https://geekvibesnation.com/gambling-superstitions-around-the-world/. Since then, I began to perceive such gestures differently — maybe they really do have meaning.

Hello! Watching how people prepare for a game, I understand how strong a role internal beliefs and symbols play. Someone will not start a game without their "lucky" bracelet, while someone carries a penny found on a lucky day. These little things become a kind of protection from unpredictability and part of an internal ritual, without which it is simply uncomfortable to start.
