These cards are fantastic, and have a very Tally-Ho feel to it. Nice, smooth, and a bit stiff at
first so you have to break them in with a bunch of faros and riffles, etc.
Out of the box,
they fan gorgeously and faro fairly easily as well. After a while, they still fan/faro nicely.
They also crimp/un-crimp no problem, even after a month of use full of crimping to mark
locations. This might be because of the nice coating they have.
I will agree the pips are
smaller than I'd like them to be, but that hasn't been a problem for spectators in close-up.
Lastly, I'd like to say that despite heavy use, they have NOT been clumping. At all. Heavy
faro-ing, shuffling, spectator use, my really sweaty palms, etc. I'm telling you, they really run
like a deck of Tally's except with a more exciting backing, smaller pips, gorgeous art, and the
darker red cards.
Highly recommended for any card users looking for something different.
I'm pretty much a Tally-Ho only user, so I really hate switching deck brands, but I will make an
exception to these guys.
And yes, the tuck case is nice.
