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

Love these cards! They last years of playing while camping, at the beach, etc. They are waterproof and super durable. Definitely recommend, worth the price for a set of 2 decks.

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.

we use these for our poker club they are good quality we play 3-5 times a week and the hold up well

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.

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.

Great cards.

I've been playing cards for many years and decided to switch from Bicycles and Bees to cellulose acetate plastic; ie: KEM and COPAG. I purchased one set each of KEM arrows and COPAGs; both are poker (regular) size. I received the cards a few weeks ago and have had some time to play with my poker group and gauge opinions. Interestingly, our group voted 50/50 KEM vs COPAG. What I can offer is specific differences between the cards which you may find helpful. I've also included the specs of a Bicycle deck for comparison. KEM .014" card thickness .700" deck thickness, w/o jokers 2.5"W x 3.5"L deck dimensions 8.75" surface area COPAG .012" card thickness .625" deck thickness, w/o jokers 2.483"W x 3.465"L deck dimensions 8.604" surface area BICYCLE .011" card thickness .580" deck thickness, w/o jokers 2.48"W x 3.475"L deck dimensions 8.618" surface area As you can see, the KEM deck is almost 12% thicker and 1.7% larger surface area than the COPAG deck, and 21% thicker and 1.6% larger surface area than a Bicycle deck. 21% thicker than a Bicycle deck is a big deal if you're a smaller-handed dealer! Here are my personal thoughts; The COPAG's feel slightly better when shuffling as the deck is slightly smaller, less weight and easier to handle for short fingers (like mine). The KEM's numbering is smaller and much less blocky, and appear more like a traditional deck. The COPAG's have larger (not Jumbo) lettering which is blocky. Both decks have visually pleasing and symmetrical backing designs. Both slide easily on felt and are very easy to riffle/shuffle. The COPAG's have an attractive blue border around each face card picture, unlike the KEM's black border. However, the red ink used on the KEM's hearts and diamonds appear darker and a little higher quality than the COPAG's. My cut cards more than fit the bottom of my COPAG deck. The opposite is true of the KEM deck, as the cut card is just a hair smaller than the deck. Also, the COPAG's will fit inside any paper deck box, like Bicycle or Bee. The KEM's will definitely NOT fit in a standard deck box. If you're switching from a paper plastic-coat deck like Bicycles, Bees or Motors, you'll find the most physical similarities with the COPAG deck. Alternatively, you'll find the most visual similarities with the KEM deck. The KEM deck has a well-known image on the ace of spades and is probably the most recognizable deck around (ie; Rounders). Cost wise, I spent a few dollars more on my KEMs than I did the COPAGs. If I were to choose only one based on price, feel and aesthetics, I'd probably go for the COPAG deck. Oh, I asked my wife which she liked better (as an uninformed observer) and she couldn't really tell the difference between the KEM and COPAG decks. She did like the feel compared to a paper deck though. Then she beat my flopped straight by sucking out on the river with a low flush (I love you dear). Bottom line, choose either one and you'll be super happy you upgraded from the popular paper brands. I hope this helps in your decision!

High quality cards. Huge improvement for poker nights.

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.
