Default Re: A curious question about cards

We have a regular player at our 10-20 game that's visually impaired. He has to sit in the 5 or 6 seat also and uses a small pen light that helps him look at his cards. Like youtalkfunnny said, large index cards are rarely used in card rooms because there's less of a chance of other players seeing your cards. [ QUOTE ]
Further, I'd expect jumbo-index cards to be preferred from a security standpoint--surely the cameras could read these easier.

[/ QUOTE ] In the pit this is true. In poker no. To be honest most casinos could care less about surviellance on a poker game. The bottom line is they care about protecting their money, not yours. [ QUOTE ]
I'd like to expand my horizons and play some poker elsewhere, but obviously I won't be keen on traveling to play where I won't be able to read the cards.


[/ QUOTE ] I wish I could be of more help but most cardrooms I know of use Kem or Copag small index cards.
