I think luck has nothing to do with the account’s age. Some gamblers feel like they have to start new because somehow their current account is tainted. That’s why they start new every once in a while. You can observe the same behavior with the card game players too. Occasionally they ask for a new deck. The idea is the same. The thing is, they almost always do that when they are losing. They never do it if they are already winning. Some players have those superstitious beliefs but what you gonna do? Not everybody operates like a computer only based on proofs and facts.
