Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance
But do you know that Fengshui is practiced and observed in gambling and in popular casino cities? even MGM and many hotels in casinos are following Fengshui, these are just some of the examples
the MGM Grand had to change its entrance, one that formerly forced customers to walk through the mouth of a lion (actually, under its chin, but close enough), deemed to be a very bad mojo by players from Asia.
The number Four is unlucky because it sounds like the Chinese word for “death.” This is why many hotels in Las Vegas skip floor numbers that start with the number four. The Rio Las Vegas, for example, is advertised as having 51 floors, but if you deduct the missing 40-49, it actually has just 41. The Encore is also missing floors 40-49.
So you see even if everything depends on luck and circumstances there are many people even non-Chinese are following Fengshui practices.
How about you? Do you have Fengshui practice that you're observing when you are about to play or while playing
While it may sometimes be aesthetically pleasing to have some spaces shaped around the concept of Feng Shui, in most other places it's just called common sense design practices. Optimizing the layout of every room and making them practical is hardly exclusive to Chinese design. It's a bit of a shame to see an example of how a colorful and creative artistic idea like walking through the mouth of a Lion, which would hardly get much attention in somewhere like America, has been removed to account for the tastes of a whole other continent - but it seems they were willing to drop it for the sake of chasing extra player money. Same with removing numbers to pander to superstitions, should we remove 4's from a deck of poker cards because certain people think they are a spooky number?
