This marked deck is good, but not the best it could be. It is a mystery to me why the designer would have an easy-to-see card value, with a difficult-to-see card suit. This makes no sense, since the suit could easily have been made a bit larger, allow one to read the card at a greater distance, which obvioulsy makes it more magical. Perhaps those with eagle-eyes will not have a problem. But, there is no reason it could not have been more visible for the reast of us. Since the care value is the appropriate size, so too could the suit. Actually, the suit could have just been made slightly bolder. Why make us struggle or have to hold the cards closer than necessary? Seems foolish.

This deck is incredible. The marks though were spotted by a spectator in one of my tricks but that usually won't happen.It's great, the thing is it's very expensive.

The best out there Report this review

By far the best marked there in the marked. That's all I have to say about this. If you use a marked deck, you must buy the UMD.

It's great! Report this review

A really nice marked deck. It may not stand for rigorous examination, but the advantage is the marks can read extremely efficiently. I can even ribbon spread the whole deck and find a specific card in less than 5 seconds! The mark is so well designed so that you don't have to memorize any pattern at all, and once you've seen the mark, you can tell what the card is in no time without thinking.

Overrated Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 14th, 2017
Let's set the record straight. The "tell" when using a marked deck is not the design of the back. The tell is looking at the backs for too long trying to read the markings.

And that's the problem with this deck. Specifically (and strangely), the numbers read fine, but the suits are just a little too difficult to read quickly, which means that reading the markings requires more time staring at the backs.

This is still a good reader back deck. But is it the "ultimate marked deck" just because they have Bicycle Rider Backs? I say no it is not. There are better ones out there, and they're all more reasonably priced.

So minus 2 stars for the poor readability of the the suits, and minus 1 star for the high price (which is the highest price I've ever seen for a marked deck).

It's restricted only to your imagination. Just a slight (sleight) glance and you know the card. Within 24 hours and I'm ordering the other color. You gotta see this!
