2 pip vs 4 pip

2 pip vs 4 pip cards

which do you guys prefer?

i'm pretty fickle but at the moment and for a while i do seem to prefer the look of 4 pips but i normally play with 2 pip cards which are the best i currently have and have no problems at all, i'm left handed btw and i generally play texas hold'em. i just prefer the look of 4 pips but whenever i watch poker after dark or high stakes poker they generally use 2 pip regular index cards.

the only disadvantage i can think of to 4 pips is maybe it's slightly more possible for your opponents to see your hole cards with the 4 pips? i don't know

which do you prefer and why?

4 pip. And jumbo poker size. Easier to look at when drunk. At later stages the five community cards looks like ten cards anyways...

I like 2 pips more because the look is cleaner, but to be honest it's sometimes harder to see when cards overlap.

Maybe it's nice to run a poll and also include the 2 color or 4 color index.

so you prefer 2 pips but think that 4 pips are more practical?


yes a poll would be cool, does a mod have to do that?

if i did a poll i would prefer 2 categories, one for preference between 2 and 4 pip designs and a second category for preference between 2 and 4 colors
