Decant

[DavidN]

decant
verb
To pour off gently, as liquor, so as not to disturb the sediment; or to pour from one vessel into another; as, to decant wine.

I could've sworn I heard an anouncer use this word to mean to rid the number 13 of bad luck or reduce the bad luck.
One of the USAs women cyclist is number 13 and she had turned the 3 upside down.

Did anyone hear this by chance?

I sit and look at the number and upside down will still look the same, maybe the anouncer meant reversed.

Anyway, I could find no reference in a couple of dictionary sites.

Thanks!
