2. The Third Base Position
More often than not, blackjack players fear or avoid the last seat to
the left. This is because of the strong belief that whoever takes that
seat will heavily affect the whole game. If the game does not turn out
well, such player is often thought as the one who caused the
unfavorable odds and vice versa. Due to this, there is some sort of an
unwritten rule that only veteran players can take that seat—the ones
who are more experienced and can secure a sure win even without
lifting a finger.

Yet, on a closer look, it can be seen that this belief has no basis at all.
The winning possibilities of each player cannot be influenced by
another. This is purely independent. If there is one thing that will
surely affect or impact the game, it is the player’s skills and expertise,
not his seat.

3. The Bad Luck Magnet
Players who employ a different strategy or do not use a strategy at
all are often referred to as the bad luck magnet. It is for this
reason that other blackjack enthusiasts avoid this player. They
want to stay away from the possibility of experiencing a losing
streak once they played with this individual.
In as much as the seat can barely affect the game’s outcome and
so is the strategy used by another. If they are bad luck magnet
because of the weak technique that they use or because of not
using one, they will not affect the game’s outcome for the rest of
the group. If there is anyone who will most likely suffer from this,
it is no other than the “bad luck magnet” alone.

4. Stealing One’s Card
Is it really possible to steal the card of another in blackjack? Well
according to some players, if another member makes an immediate
hit right after receiving a card, the latter’s act is believed to be
stealing what is supposed to be given to another player. For example,
if player A hits and receives the Ace— a card needed by player B to
get a natural—myth believers will immediately think that player A
stole player’s B card.
Once and for all, the first player has nothing to do with how the cards
are distributed. They have no control over it. Thus, “stealing” in this
case is just a made-up scenario or belief. Come to think of it, if the
allegedly “stolen” card will cause player B to bust, the latter will not
describe player’s A hit as stealing.
