CopagExport Design 100% Plastic Playing Cards, Poker Size (Standard) Jumbo Index Red/Blue Double Deck Set

At 2 to 3 times the cost of a deck of Bicycle jumbo index cards, these may seem expensive, but if you play regularly they are really a bargain. It depends on how fussy you are; some folks don't mind worn out cards. While a deck of Bicycles may last through 5-10 hours of play before a card is bent, marked, or the deck is just worn down, the Copag deck can last for 100s of hours.I have played with the same decks of Copags in monthly poker tournaments, each lasting 4-6 hours, for more than 4 years. I've yet to replace a deck. While the Copags never crease or mark, they will get sticky over time just from skin oil and ambient dirt. An occasional (annual for me) swish in a sink of soapy water takes a few minutes and restores the cards to their original feel.The nice plastic case is a plus - it also shows no wear after years of use and presents the cards as new every time. The cards never soften, retaining their crisp feel for easy shuffling. The cards themselves are sharply printed with a clear and clean jumbo index design. Beware of off brands where you don't know the face design of the cards - I have been stuck with "bargain" decks where the "fancy" typeface made the cards nearly illegible! If the feel and appearance of the deck is important to you, invest in the Copags. They will look and play like new indefinitely.

Good cards A+

My league has been using Copags for over 5 years. 4 decks ( 2 tables) lasts us all season. Tried others but nothing else compares to the durability & quality. Only one deck out of about 20 has had an issue. Started to develop some odd print marks on the corners after one use. I could have returned for replacement but it's a bit of a hassle. I emailed them pics of the bad cards thinking they would just send me a new deck, but they wanted them returned at my time & expense... not worth the bother so I just ordered more.

Please don't flame me, but I like these cards better than Kem. I have both and, while the Kems are nice, these are a bit stiffer and feel (at least to me) a bit more comfortable and sturdy. I would give the Kem cards 4 stars, as they are durable and work fine, but feel a bit too flimsy for my taste.As a side note, I find that I am leaning more towards the large index over the standard index - it's easier to see the board when you're sitting at the far edge of the poker table.All in all, I find that the Copags are a bit easier to shuffle, deal, and handle than the Kems.

Good cards. I’ve been using this brand for years. Now IMO KEM is the gold standard but these copags are 1/4 of the price of KEM ($75) now a days. So I’ll be buying them as long as they stay reasonably priced.

Perfect

These cards are the best you will find. The plastic shuffles smoothly, and feels sturdy. The cards resist bends and tears, so the last a long time before becoming "marked."If avoiding marked cards is important to your game, these cards will save you money in the long run. Also, regular paper cards just won't feel right anymore. The higher quality of these cards becomes "a need" for serious players.

Durable and a dream to handle. These are similarly price to the bicycle prestige but feel a bit better since the prestige (still really good cards in their own right) are a bit stiffer.
