I made a large raise post flop and another raise on the turn card and a call (against a raiser) on the river. Why did i do this? Because i THOUGHT that i had an Ace hearts high flush, since i "saw" three hearts on the board after the turn card. I was genuinely astonished when the dealer pushed the pot towards my opponent as i cried out "but i have a flush!" Taking one last look at the board, i see two hearts, a spade, a RED DIAMOND!, and another spade. So what i really saw were three RED cards, and my mind tricked me into thinking that i had a flush. This was not entirely due to lack of concentration. You see, at FullTiltPoker where i play online pretty much every day, i have selected the option to have a 4 color deck. So the only time i see red cards is when they are hearts. The spades are always black, the diamonds are always blue, and the clubs are always green. This daily routine has wired my brain to think "hearts" whenever i see the color "red". A very Pavlovian stimulus response i know. Of course, the beauty of the 4 color deck is that you will immediately know if you are on a flush draw or not. You will not make a mistake that will cost you money at the table, at least not the one I made! These 4 color cards are also helpful for memorization. For example, today i decided to work on memorizing the starting hands that make up the David Sklansky Table Group 2, so i laid out the following cards on my desk: TT AQs AJs KQs AKo. Of course you can pick any color you want for the suited hands, but i just find that laying the cards down like this using different colors for each of the suited hands helps commit to memory. So to summarize, there are two good reasons to go with 4 color cards: 1) Quickly identifying a flush or flush draw without any confusion. 2) As an educational tool for memorization. Finally, I would love to see a "revolt" against the old guard black & red deck. That kind of deck belongs in a museum under glass! Best Wishes to All. Daniel.

This review is from: Copag 4-Color Poker Size Regular Index Playing Cards (Sports) Been using these cards for a few months now and they are great for home games. Good durability, good feel, and 4 colors, too. The colors are slightly washed out, as others have stated, but it's not a problem at all and is probably due to the manufacturing process. The case is nice and sturdy, and the cards are close to perfect. My only complaint is that these decks do not come with a plastic cut card! Throw in a couple cut cards, and I'd give it 5 stars.
