It is undeniable that our profession shapes our world to a great extent. And why not? Since the day we acquire senses, we strive and strive to achieve something that later on becomes our other half.
Surprisingly, people develop habits while working in a particular scenario or field and are not even conscious about it. Well, it is not negative in any way but yes, people around you might find it weird. Just imagine, you are story-telling your kid when you are completely exhausted and drowsy and after few moments of narration, you start giving him the details of train routes and ticket fares, in the semi-conscious state? It is not difficult to guess that you are one hell of a dedicated Railway Employee. Not only will it be weird but also abnormally hilarious.
Well, poker players also exhibit such weird habits just because poker takes over their minds over everything else. Here is a list of eerie habits that poker players exhibit and if you relate to any these, well you are allowed to LAUGH OUT LOUD:
#5 They Follow Biological Clock Opposite To The Rest Of Mankind
If you have a poker player at home, you know exactly what we are talking about. Poker players tend to have a clock of their own. For them, their day begins late in the day and because of their involvement in the game at the late night hours, the tired body sleeps till late afternoon. Once a poker player gets into a lengthy game, it's only hunger that can make them eat. Conventionally, they are denoted as night-owls by rest of the human community, but that doesn’t matter. They run on their love for poker.
#4 Calculation is life
The first thing that the felt teaches, is calculation. Poker, to a great extent, uses permutation, combination and probability. Also, making decisions is an internal calculation of the human brain. Thus, this habit overpowers the life of a poker player, most of the times. A poker player, in real life, rarely makes a hasty decision and thus the chance of making an error is automatically reduced.
#3 A live player’s palm is empty without chips
Poker players, especially the live players, have the habit of fidgeting with chips during the game. Since, players are involved in long gaming hours very often, this act turns into a subconscious habit. So, don’t be surprised if you see players fidgeting with something or the other. They cannot help that even when they are not playing. They certainly miss the felts all the time.
#2 Poker is the only indoor game
Well, this is the case with most of the poker players. Whenever there is a get-together of friends or family, for them it always has to be poker that unites everyone. Any other indoor game is never good enough for them. Maybe, a guilty pleasure is also a cause for the same proposition every time. After all, is the temptation of showing off the poker skills before keens, is easy to do away with?
#1 Messy
This doesn’t apply to all the poker players though. But, most of the times you will come across poker players who don’t have much clue about the whereabouts of their belongings. But, safety of money is an exception for them. After all, they are one of those groups which know the real value of money.
We are sure that if you have acquaintances who are poker lovers, you have lol-ed at every headline. Also, do share this article with all your poker geniuses.
