White Playing Cards Makes It Harder To Cheat the Blind

white-playing-cards

Have you ever played poker against a blind guy? And not a poker blind, I’m talking a dude that literally can’t see. It’s super effective. All you have to do is peer over his shoulder to scope out his hand. You’ll know just when to fold ‘em and when to hold ‘em. Luckily for me I feel no guilt. In fact, I feel no emotion… ever. Well, anger sometimes. But let’s not talk about that. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.

These White Playing Cards would be a smart choice for the blind player. The card color is so close to the background color that you have to take a pretty close look just to see what cards you have. Peering over the shoulder probably won’t work with this deck.

iPhone Playing Cards

At first glance, you might think that this is some sort of new twisted iPhone application, designed to make you purchase 52 iPhones for a complete deck (and no doubt some schmuck would do it). But nope, nothing devious going on here.

This is an actual deck of playing cards designed to look like the iPhone. This $25 deck features awesome iPhone design aesthetics, including a curved back illusion and the iconic home button. Seems like a sweet way to kick up the Texas Hold ‘Em a notch.
