I know there was another thread about this but instead of asking if you use it I would like to ask if you are willing to give it a try.
Is anyone willing to listen to my propaganda?

I have played with 4 color decks online but never tried at the poker table. I'm a little old fashioned offline when I'm offline.

Yeah, most people are old fashioned when it comes to things like this. I'm going to take that as a no. Anyone else?

Here is what I use. The red on the hearts is the prettiest red you've ever seen on a playing card. This picture doesn't really do it justice though. I'll see if I can find better pictures of the cards. |

The cards are pretty but also pricey. I'm not certain I understand what the attraction is other than just being pretty to look at. I like playing fast so that would probably elude me ..especially at $20 a deck lol. |

Interesting link and really would like to see a better quality pic, when the deck is unusual or pretty enough it worth the price, especially because it's Christmas time, we deserve a poker present too.

Thanks nonlocal.
Maybe that is the reason why people are afraid to try color decks, lack of enough pictorial information. |

Cards wear quickly enough (especially from my manner of shuffling) that I can't see spending too much. I like a nice crisp deck every now and then and I'd rather keep paying a buck or two for them! |

YOu and me both! If someone gives me really nice cards, I tend to toss them in a drawer and not use them. It's like they're too nice! |

Yes, I have a few decks of cards that are like that (collectible items, or high quality). I end up putting them away and forgetting to use them at all. My Lord of the Rings theme deck is like that. |

I used to travel a lot and I really miss the decks I would always get on either Pan Am or British Air ...they were great poker cards and I had scads of them. Hard to get them anymore. |

I have some vintage decks, included some that belonged to my grandmother, who introduced me to the game.
Such decks never go to the poker table, swear it! |

I am just so used to the regular deck it might take awhile for me to get used to a 4 colour deck. I like the red and black just fine really. If the 4 colour deck helps you online that's great too. That is good if you have the option online to choose what you want to use. |

Unfortunately the 4 color decks do not seem to have taken off. I bought two sets of the cards and most players I have shown them to and tried to introduce them into the game did not like them. I prefer them. I think, like any other change, it just takes using them more frequently to get used to it. I think once everyone started using them they would not want to go back to the two color system. |
