Default Re: Roll Call for USPC Stud Events

Kem got bought out by the US Playing Card Company a few years ago, and USPC in their infinite wisdom decided to move the whole operation to Cincinnati, which is where they are based. Production ceased while they loaded everything onto trucks and reinstalled the equipment in the new facility. There was a definite shortage of Kem cards for a while there. Canterbury tried other brands for a time. My one and only trip to the Taj was in December of 2004, and they were using regular paper cards--Bicycle decks or something--which had obvious creases in them. I played at the Trop and the Borg that day as well, and they both had plastic cards.

I think ten times in three years is perfectly reasonable. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
