Copag 1546 Design 100% Plastic Playing Cards, Bridge Size (Narrow) Red/Blue (Standard Index, 1 Set)

I have been using these cards for years now, they have been used dozens and dozens of times. I have seen no wear or degradation of any kind. When you first get them, they slide around like crazy, but after some use they will be a bit more manageable. They can be cleaned if they get dirty, and they're plastic so water/spill damage isn't a concern. The poker size does feel a bit small, as they are not as wide as the bridge size. I also really like their 4-color deck, the colors are very vibrant. The designs on the front and back look great, and the cards just feel good in your hand, or when peeling back cards from the felt. They are still crisp, the flexibility has not worn over time. Copag also offers free replacements for bent or damaged cards, just go to their website to arrange the return/exchange. Can't recommend Copag enough.

These cards are lovely - I enjoy the lighter tones of yellow, blue and orange on the facecards instead of the usual black red and gold. They handle nicely and I'm happy to think they will stay clean, and can be washed if necessary.

As a child in the sixties of bridge-playing parents, I grew up with Kem cards always being around the house. Paper cards were, and are still, not only unpleasant to use but also a poor investment for those of us playing a lot.I still love Kem cards, still own some, but I discovered Copag about a decade ago and really fell in love with them. They are somewhat thinner and more flexible than Kem, but I've seen no difference in durability. As I'm now in my mid-sixties, getting a little arthritic in the hands, they are sure easier to shuffle than Kem and much, much easier than something like cheap Bicycle cards. A package of Copag live in my carry-on for cards on the road. Only thing I wish is that they offered more designs for regular index. I don't like jumbo index, that's what I have reading glasses for! Jumbo index makes it tough to play any of the solitaire games. I also wish at least some of the Copag decks came in a paper storage box as so many travel card holders are made to work with the cards in their box. Regardless, these are terrific and the flexibility is the best I've seen.

I’ve handled these cards pretty extensively in this first week of having them and so far they feel quite durable.I have heard a lot of complaints about how they damage easily, but so far have not run into this.Here are the negatives I have noticed though: 1they are very smelly out of the box (which is probably not good given then are PVC which is known to give off volatile off gases)2 surface is overly smooth and have a tendency to slide around too much.3 the corners and sides are poorly finished and clearly uneven when you hold the deck together. For this price point I was able to buy a deck of Desjgn plastic cards which had perfectly rounded corners and smooth even sides.Maybe if they dropped the price to $14 these would be more worth it, but for this price I’d look else where

The cards feel like they'll last forever!

I read several reviews on multiple sites before purchasing these. I went with the bridge size, simply because it's the standard size the cards rooms use for Texas Hold'em. I later bought the standard poker size cards, just to give the guys a choice of cards during home games. Copag Playing Cards Dealer Kit - 1546 Black/Gold Poker Regular I later learned The WSOP this year struck a deal with Copag, to use their cards for their tournaments, replacing the more expensive KEM cards.WoW. Going from inexpensive, okay cheap, thrift store paper cards to these was a change. The first time I shuffled them, they were all over the place. But it's easy and fast to get used to them. Plastic is the way to go. No more bent cards after dealing and the guys bending corners to look at their cards. These cards snap back straight, hand after hand.For the price of one set of KEM cards, you can get two sets of Copag cards.Simple decision to buy Copag cards.

Cards are very nice and are top quality,the case situation is a little weird as both decks are in the one case.

These are awfully slick / slippery for shuffling and dealing. You've got to be skillful or you'll have cards on the floor. But we've not experienced any durability problems.
