Poker vs Bridge Size (4 Viewers)

[JustinInMN]

The fact that you are using ChatGPT (Which is notoriously bad for giving incorrect information with regards to general questions!) to justify yourself, and then it also spits out the above, which actually CONTRADICTS your assertions. (Because again, ChatGPT is being ChatGPT and completely fscked up the information.)

1. Discard racks, shoes/dealing shoes for blackjack. - Those games use POKER SIZED CARDS on the gaming floor. Not bridge.

2. It says it's more forgiving for smaller hands. I've personally worked with, and trained quite literally hundreds of poker dealers. Every single one when asked, clearly preferred dealing bridge size cards. (In the casino here in BC, Canada, dealers start out with casino floor games, ie baccarat and blackjack, before getting trained on poker.) So they ALL START OUT USING POKER SIZE. It is unanimous in the appreciation of bridge size cards for games where you have to hold the deck. (Double deck blackjack/pitch blackjack dealers all would prefer to use bridge if given the opportunity).

3. Sorry, completely false. As I stated, poker sized cards are used on the gaming floor everywhere (blackjack, baccarat, shoe games), and bridge is used ONLY in poker rooms.
So the simplified inventory, table conversions, and dealer movement between games without re-training? 100% BS.

4. And here's another thing that failed! Several of the televised poker events actually use POKER SIZE cards. This was done to increase visibility for cameras.

So, I mean, if you want to follow your lord and saviour ChatGPT, well, it's basically telling you that bridge size is best. You're just incapable of reading the information it's giving you.

Excellent post.

Unfortunately, you are about to be told this is a conspiracy and you are in on it.

My girlfriend says I'm a big man, but the truth is...I'm average. VERY average. Barely average. Ok...below average. I feel like I need to make up for my "short commings," so I'm all over poker size.

Exactly….but understand you are talking to a guy that would argue water isn’t wet

But do you have scientific proof of this??
You're clearly not an engineer who has studied and proven the fact that poker size fits EVERYONE'S hands better.

I do wonder also, trained poker dealers are taught to NEVER put down the deck. Once you cut the deck, pick it up, it does not leave your hands until the river card is dealt, then the stub is spread and cut card placed on top.

The majority of recreational dealers, shuffle, pick up the cards, then deal, then put it down and don't touch the cards again, except to pick up flop/turn/river, and in many cases they don't even pick the deck back up for that. Holding the deck continuously does make a big difference, and I think that could be the reason why it's not noticed as much, unless you're dealing poker 8 hours a day.

The majority of recreational dealers are PLAYING.

FYP.

I saw these soaps for sale today in a local shop. They appear to be bridge-sized soaps. Perfect for people whose hands are too small to handle poker-size soap without it slipping away in the shower. LMK if any of you need me to pick up a few bars

You cannot tell the size from the photo. Will you please take one with a banana for reference?
