Default Re: 4 Color Decks in B&M?

Kurn,

I'm not sure that 4-colors would help at Foxwoods. Why?? ....... Have you noticed that in the last 2-3 years, that is has become increasingly difficult to tell red from black at the poker tables?

I think that Foxwoods has changed they type of lights that they use. My guess is that they've gone to a less expensive bulb, which has a lower color frequency spectrum, and this is causing the problem.

I have a vision problem (which is why I don't play stud live), so I'm with you on that one, too. I am, however, highly senstive to shades of color, which has made the red/black issue apparent to me at Foxwoods.

I'd also agree with Mason that the risks far outweigh the rewards.

Online is a different story, as one doesn't have to worry about flashing cards or hole-peekers.
