check the online gambling houses like casinosupply.com or pokerchips.com

Also think about pool table felt as an option.

Well, I've never been to a casino so I don't know how cards slide there, but I recommend you take come cards and visit your local fabric store. We ended up getting some really nice high-thread cotton fabric and it's slicker than snot (quite literally). The cards slide very well, we had our choice of twelve colors, and it was a lot cheaper than any of the casino felts out there.

If you go to casinocom.com, and scroll around poker supplys, you'll find a number of options. Because it looked REALLY kick ass, I chose the green "suited" material, which has clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades on it (green on green) it makes more sense when you see it on their site.

When it got here, I was PISSED because it seemed too textured, and I was sure it would catch and flip cards. I fortunately gave it a try, because it ROCKS!!! Played on it with 9 guys from an 18 man tourney last week - does not catch or flip cards. It is EASY to sling them Exactly where you want them, and it lays down nice and flat when pulled and stapled tight.

The last two benefits, are that it does not "pill", or ball-up into "knitts"; it stays smooth, unlike my buddys "poker felt". And, lastly, unlike some of the more velour-like options, you WON'T get green fuzzy crap under your fingernails.

Best of all It looks AWESOME!!!

also checkout casinosupply.com if no one has mentioned it yet.
