Wanted KEM Decks Bridge Size Narrow Index (1 Viewer)

Legit question.
They are expensive and they bow badly right out of the cellophane. There are tons of other brands out there that perform better and feel great. Have you looked at any other brands?
Yes Ive tried a few brands such as Copag, Faded Spade, and Queen/Boss from Taiwan

None of them have the lifespan to handle the volume (12-14 hours a day) other than KEM. The Copags crimp/mark too easily. And the faded spade arent durable enough. Although the KEMS do bend, they last the longest (approx 2-3 weeks) for the abuse they take in my local game compared to Copag which last about 3-5 days.

Do you have another high quality brand in your experience that you could steer me towards?
 
Dang. 12-14 hrs a day. Thats a lot of card playing. If you are playing that much, I’d assume you’ve done a cost-to-life comparison to see if cheaper cards from China (ThePokerStore.com) are more cost effective than replacing Kems every 2-3 weeks.

That said, I’d recommend Desjgn, Fournier, Dal Negro of Trefl. These feel great, but I can’t say I’ve used them as much as you are playing.

Wasn’t happy w design. They get marked so quickly.

Surprised OP said faded spade are not durable. They are almost too durable and stiff!
 
In my experience the Broken Arrow "Profesional Series" are quite stiff to shuffle; I'm sure quite durable yet, very stiff.
