Gemaco Casino cards - crazy eyes!
I picked up some of the Grand Victoria Gemaco cards from the Chiproom's Black Friday sale & used them last night for the first time. Very nice cards, good feel, shuffle great, bridge size (which I prefer).

One thing I immediately noticed is that the face cards have a solid black eye with no detail. It looks like they're trippin'!

Take a look:

Top= DaVinci, middle= Fournier, bottom= Gemaco

Haha, nice catch. Seems like the eyes are consistent throughout Gemaco's card lineup.

Yes, it seems they do...my PCA plastics (the are not superflex) & paper ones (tech art) have the same 'drugged' face cards.

Re: Gemaco Casino cards - crazy eyes!
Gemaco does make a fantastic deck of cards. I got some "Freddie's Club Casino" cards on e-bay, and they have a really nice feel to them.
