Plastic Cards
I host a home game once a month or so. Is it worth the extra money to get a few decks of plastic cards instead of the usual bicycle?

[/ QUOTE ] It's certainly worth the money to get one set-up and try them out to see if your crowd likes them. There is no doubt that they will outlast the usual bicycle deck and be more economical over time. |

Re: Plastic Cards
Or maybe 36 decks? (I got them at .30 each in bulk - I'll give some to my friends). Thanks for the input. Love that pic of yours. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Plastic Cards
I think Copag's are absolutely worth the money. KEM's are more expensive and I don't think they feel that much better than the Copag. Once you've played with all-plastic, paper cards feel awful.

Re: Plastic Cards
I've used Kems and have some Copags now.
However, if you can get cards cheap in bulk, I've always thought there was something nice about starting the evening by breaking the seal on new decks of cards and playing with them for the evening. Purely personal preference, here. |

Re: Plastic Cards
It is absolutely worth it. We play 2 tables of 8 for 5-7 hrs. and went through 2-4 decks per night (Playing 2-decks per table) Even though I bought them in bulk, used paper casino cards 144 decks for $70 bucks which included shipping the 2 set ups of Copags we now have lasted 9 months and still look and play brand new. Every new person to our game comments on how nice the cards are, in the long run they are cheaper and the feel is excellent, we will never go back. Anybody want an gross of paper cards?
