An unexplained entity some players possess at certain times in a poker game, as a result they continue to get good cards, or catch good cards resulting in winning a lot of money regardless of the poker game they are playing.

SoundPoker Says: You should be weary if a player is lucky. If you are playing poker against a lucky player, the best strategy is to continue playing in the fashion that makes you successful. Even if this means coming back on a different day.
