I've been playing live poker for a while. And often there is one seat -- or two -- at a nine or ten handed table that seems to win more hands, more big hands, and the player has more chips.

Is it because the player is better, or the seat is luckier and gets the better cards? Is there such a thing as a lucky seat?

Personally I don't believe in "lucky seats" but I am often amazed how when a "big stack" decides to leave several players will try for vacated seat.

And sometimes, when a player gets that vacated seat, the winning cards continue.

Coincidence? Selective memory? Mass hysteria?? LOL
