I will also disagree with the sad review Report this review

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.
