how many decks of cards do you have? (1 Viewer)

[lewan]

i have 34 decks, a few not pictured. what about you guys?

 

[LeLe]

I got about 30 brand total around 80-90 decks and about 200+ decks or so faked Copag deck in storage as well.

I had long since stop collecting decks as I just have about enough deck to last about 5 years at least

 

[NotRealNameNoSir]

Poll is weird, I can truthfully select 100 or less if I've got 2 decks in the house!

[surfik]

I am propobly less than 100
Shame you havenot asked me yesterday...

 

[CdnBeerLover]

I think I have under 50 setups. But I haven't counted in a while...I may have to change my vote.

 

[Bikshu]

Does a single "setup" of cards (as PCF defines it) count as 2 different decks, or as just one deck? And on the flip-side of that, are we also counting non-poker related decks of playing cards? Like I have numerous card decks that are made of various types of paper card stock - as opposed to plastic cards. Most of those paper decks were designed for collectors, cardistry, and/or magic and so are pretty damn high quality cards, but they'll never see felt since they just weren't made for playing card games. Do those count?

a setup = 2 decks i would say. and that is a valid question. i would answer yes given the broadness of the question but i can understand those who would say no

 

[JMC9389]

Shitty picture but you get the idea. The set ups/decks are all stacked 10 high to the top. These are just poker size decks. I have 40 more decks of my "top shelf" poker size stuff in a wooden box.

I have another one of these full to the brim of my bridge size decks. Also have a brick of Fournier 2800 and a brick of Angel Aristo clubs downstairs, as well as a smattering of loose decks and garbage China decks in the basement.

This just reminded me to count em......

Got around 5 shoeboxes worth. Most of them dual deck setups.

 

[Geremie]

100+ for sure (probably 100+ unopened & another 100+ opened)

 

[Bubblejuice]

Around 100 ‍

 

[Fran]

Around 15 brands and about 100 decks

 

[detroitdad]

30 to 40 i think. I just bought a bunch from @krafticus

 

[Freeroll]

I have exactly two dresser drawers full

 

[stuamurr]

160 decks in shot - Fournier, Copag, Angel, KEM, Aristo Club, Modiano, Grimaud

 

[RocAFella1]

100+ for sure (probably 100+ unopened & another 100+ opened)

How many Grimaud?

 

[Phyffe]

Got around to counting. 125 decks. half of them coming from dual deck setups

 

[Geremie]

How many Grimaud?

 

[GodStillBlesses]

I think I have another box somewhere. There are 12 packs in each brick and about 20 bricks per box……. 960-1200 give or take a few………
And before anyone ask…….. I thought I was buying 12 packs……. Not 12 bricks……… oh the fine print, gets you every time.

Are they all mirage cards?? Edges shaved?

Regardless that’s pretty cool

90% are mirage andDiamond jack…..new not canceled sealed bricks.

 

[TheJestyr]

I’d estimate 2,000 decks? About 150 are plastic cards for poker (about 100 are opened, I only use a deck for a few hours, so these generally get given away or sold for cheap). About 200 decks are just rare/part of a collection. About 1,000 are different types of bicycles (varying finishes, thicknesses, ages, etc), about 500 or so Tally Hos, roughly a hundred Bees, and then like 10-20 random other decks.

It’s kinda gross. I use them for practice and performances. In high school I used to buy them by the gross from US Playing Card Co and it took about a week or two, but I thought it was a good deal…now you can get ‘em from Amazon overnight for so much cheaper and the quality is still damn good…

TLDR: I have too many decks.

Goodness…….. I don’t feel alone now……and I feel less crazy.

 

[superbird70]

I must have at least 200 or so, representing various casinos across the nation

 

[SetToBean]

Damn I'm only at about 35, makes me feel like a proper rookie looking through here.

 

[Tight_Lay_DOWN]

I have rookie status as well.
I'm at 14 setups - which are all plastic used for poker, and 24 bicycle paper desks for family games, etc. They play something called Head and Foot, which requires multiple decks, at least 4, but then an additioanl deck gets added when the number of game players increases. I don't know the rules - I just supply the cards.

and

1 Bicycle paper deck that we use for poker, it is a Braille deck that we use for a vision impaired (blind) player that we occasionally have. An exceptional 7 card stud and Omaha Player.
