you are in good luck if you manage to snare at least 777\  
  
so why is it "lucky seven"? There are several explanations:  
  
1 &gt; it is based on the numerical interpretations known as "gematria" which correlates numbers to things. In this case "7" refers to the hebrew word "gad", which translates to luck.  
2 &gt; the pythagoreans considered "7" to be a "perfect" number.  
3 &gt; in hinduism, the body is thought to be comprised of seven major chakra.  
  
But some cultures refer to 7 as a malus: for example, in chinese folklore, you are condemned to seven years of bad luck if you break a mirror.  
  
But in most superstitions, "7" is often thought to be a lucky number!
