So there i was, thinking ahead to BB3, and wondering if my card protector would be allowed?

It is basically a very simple Voodun charm, you know, a bit of bone and a couple of beads.

So are there any official rules regarding the use of esoteric mystical objects as card protectors in UK card rooms?

Is the bone attached to a person?

Nope, the bone is just attached to the seeds/beads.

At bB1 i used a tinned steak pudding as a card protector... got a few strange looks, but was not deemed unsuitable

Afraid not, the ceremony can only be performed be someone who has practiced Voodun for many years, requiring a deep meditational mind set and stamina as the ceremony is very draining.  The Loa can react badly to being summoned and you need to be ready for this.

You don't think the casino would mind a little chicken blood ?

No fear, i'm quite sure the semi-visible metaphysical monkey and the spirits of the Loa can coexist.

probably - but i have to be careful that with him being a creature of the jungle that he doesnt get distracted with things that may remind him of home when he should be focusing on the task at hand, namely winning money for 'team primate'

Bainn,  as long as the dealer and TD can see your cards and can see that you;re in a hand
and the card protector is not covering your cards completely then that is fine.

One cannot predict such things, who knows, Mystic monkey may suddenly have a deep desire to return to his roots, scatter your chips all over the floor and scamper out the door.....remember, if you truly love something, set it free.....
