I have to agree….they are AWESOME cards…they shuffle very well, deal very well etc…they are very flexible for riffle shuffling etc….I LOVE them. I remember them from when I was younger. My parents had them from playing crib/bridge etc (learned how to play crib from my mom). Love the feel and the durability of them. Never heard of Cellulose Acetate but it sounds very cool.

They do feel great. I think they might be my favorites with regards to shuffling and overall feel.

I haven’t gotten these yet but I remember seeing them on the High Stakes Poker and The Big Game! What stood out the most to me was the skin coloring on the face cards! I know it’s a small detail but it makes a big difference!

That was my exact reaction to seeing the joker when I opened my first Kems. I even returned the first box because I thought the pixelated jokers were a misprint, but no, the second set had the same exact thing going on. Definitely not something I'd expect to see on a $40 set, but hey, the cards feel nice and play well, so O.K.

I know right! It's totally jarring. Someone on reddit mentioned that it's because of some very old file they used. Very strange!

Can you answer a question about KEM playing cards? A family member was a collector, we have a double pack of KEM playing cards (leaf design) and there are 51 face cards in each deck (plus the 2 jokers and an informational card). Why would there be only 51 face cards? Missing card in each deck?

These are used in the movie Rounders at Teddy's place. They are good for poker because they last and are resistant to bending and damage. They do absorb moisture a little and hand oils, so can smell. They are water proof and can/should be washed, but gently or the color can fade.

Can you please check if all the index and pictures print in middle. I bought exact same thing from amazon after see your video and noticed more than few aren't print exactly in middle front and back. i contacted the KEM and they said they not selling on amazon but this card sell and fulfill by amazon and there is very unlikely they are counterfeit . They feel good in hand but they are to expensive to not been print properly

Yo! I just checked and mine seem to be printed just fine in the middle. Are they slightly off-center? Or incredibly off-center?

@@An_Ordinary_Fox Nice yo! I'm gonna see if the cards we ordered are fake or not. They sure feel good. Where did you order yours from? Regarding Fournier, I've thought about it. I have a 2 pack set up in a tab in my browser but not sure if I will yet. They're a bit harder to acquire than I expected. You have to order them from a speciality shop for the regular poker size ones.

Yes! Sorry about that! That was because of that camera not having good quality video. I have since gotten a better camera that has much crisper video. If you watch any of the newer videos you will see way better quality. I am planning on doing a comparison video of all of the plastic cards and will show them all up close.
