Default PartyPoker casino quality cards?

Whats the verdict on these?

Good? Bad? Average?

I'm thinking of ordering loads but theres no point if they are just going to get bent the first time they get riffled.

They're supposed to decent from what I've heard in the bonus forums.

they're pretty good. all plastic, wide size, jumbo index. much better thickness and quality than Royal or UB decks. 1500 points for 2 decks is an excellent value too, especially compared to their paper decks.

only reason I wouldn't use them in a home game is because they drew funny cartoons on all the face cards. too much of an unintentional tell if someone doesn't expect it when looking at their hole cards, IMO.

I just got some and found the paper to be flimsier than most cards. They aren't plastic, just lightly plastic coated. I wasn't that impressed. Stick with Bees.

They are nice. Comparable to Kem, my Kem cards are old and used now so Party's cards are actually a lot better.

I think you're confusing the Casino decks with the Standard decks. Casino decks are definitely plastic as I described in my initial reply. the Standard decks are mediocre paper with a very light plastic coat, very round corners and 4 pips. I wouldn't recommend those, but that's not what OP is talking about anyway.

I ordered the Casino decks (green, right?) and they were not plastic. Plastic coated and they felt flimsy. Not as good as even bees let alone Kems.

both kinds of party decks are green and white. I've described the two different varieties very clearly in my replies. the plastic Casino decks say "The World's Largest Poker Room" on the card backs, the paper Standard cards do not.

if you still think you are taking about the Casino decks and are certain that you don't like them, of course you are entitled to your own opinion. just want to make sure we're talking about the same exact thing.

We are talking about the Casino decks. The standard decks are green and white, the casino decks are almost all green, the box is almost all green and they say "The world's largest poker room"

I think we have a difference of opinion. I wasn't impressed and they aren't plastic. Light plastic coating, but not plastic.
