Monkey See, Monkey Do

Well, I might have posted a picture of my little buddy here a few years back. Actually misplaced him and never really searched for him. Came across him under a pile of clothes in a drawer the other night.

I bring him in my pocket to the casino and occasionally when I or the entire table are calling for a monkey, pull him out. Yes, he is solid gold and about the size of a thumbnail.

Call it superstitious or quackery, it does bring smiles and pats on the back when it works.

*I play with an elder Asian lady that always pulls out a rabbits foot (about 3-4" and looks like a key fob), and places in her lap (for the whole shoe). Most other players don't notice it. Sometimes a friend of hers will ask to see it or touch it.

I do not know if it helps. I will have to ask her, lol.

Back east we occasionally would sprinkle 'magical dust' on the cards before we peeled them, you know for a bit of help. For those that never saw this, it is rubbing your thumb and first two fingers together over the top of the cards.
