Default 4-color KEM or Copaq like decks

Hi all,
I apologize if this has been asked before (I searched the archives over the past year but didn't hit anything). I'm looking for an online source for 4 color poker decks that are of the KEM or Copaq quality.

Thanks,
Chris.

Although I can see the advantages, the disadvantage is HUGE. When some people deal I can tell if the card is red or black. If I saw four blues go out when I have two diamonds in my hand then I'm going to know my outs... not so if they are just red or black.

I could probably use my wedding band for a shiner while dealing to know the suits of everyone's hand, although I wouldn't know the ranks.

I hear this line alot about why 4-color decks are bad, and I think it's total bunk. By that logic, we should only use an all-black deck with no paint and no pips.

If you have a dealer exposing cards, that needs to be fixed no matter what type of deck you're using.

Lots of people are traditionalists, so I understand why one wouldn't like a 4-color deck, but logically it makes no sense.

http://www.4colordecks.com is going out of business and selling decks in units of 50 @ $1 per

I have a sample deck, and they are quite nice. But 50 decks is a commitment.

I agree with Lennon. If colors are bad, then we should go with 1-color decks. Otherwise, 4Color is the way to go. The only reason to stay with red/black is tradition. With cut-cards, they're plenty secure.

Playing online, 4ColorDecks are teh b0mb. (When talking about online stuff, it's important to use leet speak. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) Multitabling, it's imperative. If you're only playing 1 table, it's just cool lookin'.

Besides, without the 4ColorDeck, how are you going to get blue flushes? You gotta have blue flushes.
