SLOWPLAY 100% Plastic Playing Cards, 2-Deck Poker Card Set, Jumbo Index, Poker Size, Superior Flexibility and Durability, Waterproof & Washable, Professional Playing Cards for Texas Hold’em Poker

These plastic cards are great! I prefer plastic cards for their durability. I’ve had some plastic cards that were so slick that they couldn’t be shuffled without them sliding everywhere. I’ve also had some that stick together and don’t spread well. These SlowPlay cards are PERFECT! They fan and spread GREAT! You can easily shuffle them and they don’t go flying everywhere and they behave like cards should. They feel and handle like a dream. And I even like the tuck case each deck comes in. It seems sturdy. It’s glossy and classy looking and the flap tucks into a slit in the front of the box. Makes for an easy opening of the box and a secure closing. And it looks nice. The thickness and handling of these cards is exactly what I like. I even like these better than the Bicycle brand ‘Prestige’ series of plastic cards. These are good for both card play and for executing the occasional magic trick.

These playing cards are fantastic. You honestly can’t even tell they’re not made of paper — they look and feel like a premium deck. They hold their shape extremely well, shuffle smoothly, and slide across the table like they’re on ice. What really stands out is the durability. They don’t bend, crease, or wear down like regular cards, and they’re easy to handle even after extended use. Great for poker nights, card games, or anyone who plays frequently. Highly recommend if you want a deck that feels professional and lasts.

These plastic playing cards are a huge upgrade from standard paper cards. They shuffle smoothly, are waterproof, and feel solid in hand. I’ve used them for several poker nights, and they haven’t bent or frayed at all. The printed design is clear, and the cards snap back perfectly after being shuffled. Pros: • 100% plastic, durable and long-lasting • Smooth shuffle and handling • Waterproof and easy to clean • Crisp, clear print on both sides Cons: • Slightly slick for beginners who prefer paper cards • A bit pricier than standard cardstock cards Overall, these cards are perfect for casual or serious poker nights. They feel professional and will last for years, making them a great value for anyone who plays regularly.

I picked up this two-deck set (one red, one blue) as our regular travel pack, and overall, they deliver on most of what’s advertised. The cards definitely have that “casino level” feel: they’re 100% plastic, flexible, and don’t crease or mark easily, which makes them a big step up from standard paper decks. The handling is quite good. The slightly textured matte backs make shuffling, dealing, and picking up cards from the table pretty comfortable, and the smooth underside lets them glide nicely across the felt. If you’re used to cheap, sticky cards that clump or bend after a few games, you’ll notice the difference right away. One of the biggest perks is durability. Because they’re PVC, these cards don’t dent, tear, or show wear quickly. If you spill a drink during game night, the waterproof/washable claim holds up. Just wiped them off and kept playing. Being able to rinse off fingerprints or smudges and have them look “like new” again is a huge plus, especially after wing nights. The jumbo index is also a thoughtful touch. The large corner indices make it easy for everyone around the table to see the community cards and their own hand without squinting or lifting cards too high. The minimalist design and solid color look clean and professional. Nothing flashy, but very functional. If there’s any minor downside, it’s that plastic cards in general can take a little getting used to if you’ve only ever played with paper decks: they feel slicker and slightly different in the hand at first. But after a few rounds, that adjustment phase goes away. Overall, this is a strong choice if you want a durable, professional-looking set of cards that can handle spills, heavy use, and regular poker nights without falling apart.

Slippery smooth for fanning the cards, Elastic for card spring feels much better than LotFancy brand, the feeling is even better than cardstock, really good card for Cardistry, but a bit heavy compared to cardstock so that doing riffle fan is challenging for me. It's so elastic that one hand FARO shuffle is so easy right out of the box. A bit pricey, but not too expensive. But it's HEAVY compare to standard cardstock

These are incredibly interesting cards. I've got a bit of a collection going, having handled cards both paper and plastic, cheap and expensive, and...these are quite unique. The backs (as well as the cut cards included in each deck) have slight texturing to them, while the faces are extremely slick, similar in feel to something like Aviator or Maverick paper cards, which have untextured, slick finishes. I have never in my life used a plastic deck which handled so much like a paper deck; these deal beautifully, though are a little tough to shuffle. The weight, flex resistance and initial very heady smell of the cards give away that they're plastic, but at the same time the finish gives them the aforementioned very slick, paper-like feeling, so much so that any cardists, card mechanics or card magicians might want to consider trying these out if you ever tire of using Bikes all the time. Aesthetics-wise, the back designs are very eye-catching, brightly-colored and geometric, while the face art is quite pleasant, with decidedly-unique ace-of-spades and joker designs. The boxes are of quite high quality, and decidedly not your standard USPCC fare.

I have a weekly poker game and we use two decks continuously. Many years ago, we switched to plastic cards because the regular ones just couldn't last long enough to justify the cost. Plastic was much more efficient (they can be washed, they don't tear or bend easily, they just last much, much longer). The problem we found with plastic cards is they fade over time, especially if you wash them a lot (and you need to). We've used Davinci, Copag, and several other less famous brands. They all worked well but eventually they fade and need to be replaced. The name brands are very costly (around $10 per deck), but tend to last a little longer. Recently we've been trying out less expensive alternatives. These looked good for the price so we gave them a shot. They are very nice and compare to the Copags pretty well. The thickness is good, they feel great, shuffle great, deal well, etc. The first few weeks they were fantastic. Then they needed a cleaning. Into a bowl with warm water and a few drops of dishsoap. No scrubbing, just sloshing around. Then dried with paper towels. Good as new, right? Maybe not. After several weeks of using these cards, the ink started to fade away in places. I don't think it was because they got washed, I just think they faded sooner than most. This wasn't much of a problem on the card faces, but it happened on the card backs as well. The back color goes to the edge, there is no border on these cards. This is a major problem because with different fade patterns on card backs, you can start to learn what cards are by the fade marks. This happened with another brand we used before too. I think any cards with full color backs that go to up to the edge will be more prone to this problem. While these were impressive cards for the price, my poker friends did not like the way they aged and faded. We're going to try a high priced option next to see if they live up to the hype. I have yet to find a good blend of quality and price so far. The Davinci or Copags would be best considering the pricing now and how well they did for us in the past.

Fabulous plastic playing cards. Referred by a friend who is also very happy with them.
