1546 Design 100% Plastic Playing Cards, Poker Size (Standard) Black/Gold (Jumbo Index, 1 Set)

It has been said that you can judge quality by the weight when compared to other items... well these are the heaviest cards I have found and they are good! These are not your grandparents cards. They are made of plastic where lesser ones are plastic coated. I have done a few tests on these and found that if you shuffle like a river boat gambler, they won't last. They will last longer than the other types but remember, they are plastic and will develop stress fractures where shuffled. So, I have also tried using a manual card shuffler and there are a few advantages to why I recommend this option. First the cards don't get all broken from shuffling and they don't get dirty from over handling. These cards have a slick satiny feel and good graphics/color selection.

Great quality

I play a lot of card games - mostly solitaire - and, as a result, I end up wearing out a lot of card decks. (I much prefer playing solitaire with real cards to playing computer solitaire; I have always loved the "feel" of a deck of real playing cards in my hands.) I decided to try out a set of COPAG plastic playing cards after watching several very positive online video reviews of them. I found a two-deck set of COPAG 1546s at Amazon at a great price, so I bought them. So far, I have been completely satisfied with them. To me, it's clear that these COPAG 1546 cards are vastly superior in every way to paper cards, and they hold their own very well against other brands of plastic cards. They slide and "fan" easily; they're wonderfully flexible; they shuffle effortlessly; the colors on both sides of each card are more vibrant; and they don’t appear to be susceptible to breaking, cracking, or warping under normal use, as are some other brands of plastic cards. And, at around $10 for two decks, I think they are a pretty good buy. I've already given both decks of my new COPAG plastic playing cards a good workout, and every indication is that they are as strong and durable as they are attractive. I'm sure I will get many years of use out of these truly excellent cards. Highly recommended.

Really good set of cards. I'm happy these cards include a cut card as well. The design is really cool. Jumbo index makes it easy to read the cards.

These cards are very nice. They are the first plastic cards I've ever bought. I will not use paper cards in a Hold 'em game at my house ever again. I will occasionally buy the "specialty" paper Bicycle cards (ie: Alchemy, Karnival), but only as novelties, not for game use. Da Vinci comparison: Compared to Da Vinci, I would rank them half a star less. If I could, I would give these a 4.5 star rating and the Da Vinci's a 5-star. The difference comes down to personal taste. The Da Vinci's are slightly stiffer than the Copags. The Da Vinci's have more of a paper feel on the backs than the Copags, and about the same feel on the faces. Positives: As with any plastic card, these are washable. If beer or greasy fingers or even pizza - whatever gets on them, just fill the sink with soapy water, and throw the whole deck in. Gently wash and dry each card. They come out like new! And they last a LOT longer than any paper deck. Once you get a set of good plastic cards, You won't be hurrying to buy another plastic-coated paper deck. Negatives: The Copags STINK out of the pack. Literally! Some kind of plastic/chemical odor. I just washed them two or three times in soapy water and the odor goes away. The odor will also fade after a few hours of use. The Da Vinci's I bought did not have this problem. It may have something to do with the manufacture process or the ink used. Some people have complained that the Copags get dirty faster than the Da Vinci cards. I haven't seen that happen, and we've played probably 200-250 hands with each deck. Beer has been spilled on both, with no staining, etc. Just clean as mentioned above. The two-deck hard case for these decks is nice, BUT, it doesn't fit nicely into the typical chip case. Those chip cases are designed to hold single card boxes. I had to buy empty card boxes to put each deck in, and not use the double-deck hard case that they came in. Overall: Great value. These will probably outlast paper cards 10 to 1. The finish is great. No printing defects have been found yet, nor do I expect to find any. Cards are not scratched from dropping on the floor and scraping up, despite my abrasive ceramic tile floor. I only wish they had more back designs available in the Poker-Size. They seem to have more varieties of the Bridge-Size.

I enjoy using the Copag cards. They are easy to shuffle, durable and long lasting.

Fantastic playing cards. If you play any card game regularly these are the cards you'll want to use. 100% water proof and for general play you will more than likely never need another deck of cards. This is my second set, I guess I've become a collector as I am looking at other sets with different colors and patterns. The cards deal well and shuffling is effortless. These cards just make the games more fun. Overall you just can't go wrong. They do have a card replacement program. If you damage a card they will replace it for free, you just pay the shipping.

I've been using these cards to play poker with my friends for a couple of months now, and they still look and feel like new! The print quality on the cards is top notch, and they have no noticeable bend in them despite being constantly bent over many sessions. The cards are a bit slippery and hard to handle compared to paper cards, but you eventually get used to it. Additionally, the cards had a very strong factory smell when opened that didn't come out with washing, but the smell was gone after a month of occasional playing. Overall, I highly recommend these if you want playing cards that last.

These are good playing cards, however they have a strange plastic / chemical smell to them that lingers on your fingers after you play with them.

Todo me ha gustado

Buena calidad, solo que pensé que al ser jumbo los números vendrían más grandes

Great playing cards. I had never used plastic cards before ordering these, and I must say, they are fantastic. They do feel a bit strange at first if you're used to traditional paper cards, but once you get used to them there's no going back. Very pleased with the durability and how easy they are to shuffle. 5/5, would highly recommend.

Llegaron a tiempo y en excelente estado, calidad de cartas muy buena y sin daños.El servicio de lo mejor por parte de Amazon ya que llegaron mucho antes de lo programado.
