COPAG Texas Holdem on Amazon (1 Viewer)

Found these on Amazon. I think these were recently put back on as I haven't seen these in a while.

As memory serves these are superior in card stock to the basic ones, right?

I have a lot of the Spinettis used decks, and while they're really cool as collectibles, most of the decks have serious creases to the point where it would be tough to use them in live play as the marked cards are pretty obvious.

Im gone thru about 100 of these decks and never found any that had any flaws. YMMV

Respectfully, I have a hard time believing that there isn’t a flaw on a single card in a stack of 100 WSOP used decks. Is it possible that you’re just not seeing them? I have a hard time getting through a single home game without somebody inadvertently leaving crease marks from peeking at their cards. Sometimes you need to get the right angle of light to notice them, and some people will never notice them at all, but it’s a pretty common thing.

What's the difference between these and regular Copags?

These are the good ones indeed, made in the Cartamundi factory in Belgium.
They are better than the ones made in Brazil.
Cartamundi are even better but these Copag Texas Holdem are still really nice imho.

I have about 20 decks of various years. I think it largely depends if your cards were tabled with a bunch of Neanderthals during the WSOP. One bad apple can ruin a deck. But I build in the cost of a replacement deck so if I find marked cards I have a spare deck handy for swap outs. Mostly of the decks are good but I did get one with about 8 marked cards in it.

I try and pick them up during sales like this one:

At $3 a deck I can easily afford an extra deck or two for spares. They were only $1.50 for Black Friday.
