Playing card round-up
Torcello

A pack of cards is the most important part of any poker game – make sure you never play with a duff deck again

LOOK

100% plastic with a vaguely psychedelic back design. They have the textured feel of a more expensive set but feel noticeably heavier and more rigid. Not bad at all. 4/5 SHUFFLEABILITY

Very satisfying, although slightly rigid and not as slippy, which means you have to use more effort to bring the pack together. More suited to the swirl shuffle. 3/5 MIDDLE BEND (Cards bent in half, held for 10 seconds and left overnight to recover)

Folding in the middle left an almost imperceptible bend which disappeared completely in a couple of minutes. 5/5 CORNER BEND (Corner of cards bent back, held for 10 seconds and left overnight to recover)

The card’s fairly rigid and almost feels like it’s going to fold over on itself, but like the KEM and Copag cards it returned to its original state leaving a small mark behind.
