What are you thoughts on desijn cards? (1 Viewer)

[10centguitar]

Here is a smaller PLO pot i was dealing the other night before i got pushed to another table.

i meant to take a picture of these cards while in play and had to take a picture of one of the last pots i dealt. We were only running one sample deck of these cards on one table to see how we all like them.



I liked them. The other dealers felt they were too thin. Didnt like the diamonds as a dealer reading hands but dig them from a purely aesthetic viewpoint.
The hand in the back ground is 4 cards just tightly packed up. Unless the player had two in his hand off the table when i wasn't looking

I can save you some time here - the universal love for Desjgn cards on this site is exceeded perhaps only by the love of Chanman tables.

I may be new to posting, but i've lurked long enough to know the general feeling of Desjgns (positive in the extreme). They may be great durability and feel wise, but I REALLY don't like the look of them. I know I am in the minority with this opinion.

I really like the look of them, but have had problems with busted corners

 

[Lemonzest]

I like em.

 

[RocAFella1]

I would like them more if the pips were normal, especially on the normal index cards.

I haven't used any other decks since i started using Desijn's and have no plans to use anything else in the foreseeable future.

I like the feel of KEM better. Design are a close second for me.

It's important to note that there are at least two difference card stocks, the smooth Baroque stock, and the textured Casino stock.

I like them. They feel nicer than new Ken or copag. I had some cards mucked into a pile kind of hard and the corner snapped off. That said, they were super quick to send me a new card. The company is stand up and cares about their products and customers.

I have a couple of decks and they both suffer from the the annoying “top card float” issue. Anyone else experience this?
My KEM’s don’t have this problem so those are my go to.

 

[Beakertwang]

They are misspelled almost as much as they are loved.

I hate to be a naysayer but I do not like the pips or fonts, especially on regular index. I mistake clubs for spades and nines for sixes.

This is the boat I am in.

I believe I've used them once at Windy Crest (@CraigT78?).

They looked great, and other than that, I didn't notice anything about them, which I view as a positive.

You did. It was probably the "casino" cards as I prefer them to the ones from the Kickstarter ones. A little more texture on the casino cards.

They are my second favourite cards (Fournier is #1). They have been well received at our games.

@desjgn has many different card stocks to choose from. Some thin which I do not prefer and other thicker cards. This is good for all customers who have different tastes of thickness etc.

I like the Classic Cultures the best but unfortunately are no longer available for him to produce. His latest stock of the Jumbo Bridge cards are also nice.

Jason will be able to help you choose the right stock for your personal preference.

I'm surprised people dislike the pips. That was a major selling point for me.

Asking for thoughts not emotions but good to know

Very kind....
Still no real thoughts

Thank you for this. What things do you like about them?

Most decks I’ve dealt with do this when they’re new, Give them a few nights and the all clump when riffling and no top card floating in my experience.

I thought the face cards were a bit hokey

It is hard to remember how to spell it.

I actually did share my limited experience with the cards.

Do you know which products use which stock? Do the Baroque cards stick together like cheap paper cards from the grocery store? I just ordered the Casino cards, and I plan to try several other styles.

I like them. Got the chance to play with them for the first time a few weeks ago. Feels great, shuffle great, though parts of the cards did show a little ware, but they were used a million times from what I was told, which is good.

I just don't like them from a design perspective. The font of the indexes is not to my liking, and I don't like the diamond suit. Faces are pretty off to me too.

Not sure if I'd go out of my way to own them, but I'd be totally fine playing with them at any game.

That's just common among decks. It's because of a little pocket of air in between the top two cards.

All you need to do is put a little pressure on the top card, not even hard, and it'll stay there the air pocket will go away.

Because so far I've read only good reviews and i'm interested to try some with jumbo index., but shipping are quite high ($37 shipping for 4 sets)
So Jason is in the process of seeing if a group buy for those in Europe can be arranged

 

[MikesDad]

Love most of these... there's one design (don't recall off the top of my head) in which the 4s have pips in a straight line.... it confused a few players who looked
quickly and assumed the 4s were actually 3s, Otherwise I concur with all the positive sentiment
