The Copaq's have an interesting feature. When. dealt on a smooth surface they slide further face down - to reach the player. But when face up, they stick to stay on the board. Try it on a glass surface. This feature does tend to wear out after a while.
I'm stoked that you like the Copags. They're personally my favorite plastic decks out of the ones I've tried. I really don't mind the smell, but I'm one of the weird ones who likes the smell of gas stations.
If i'm not wrong, The copags are made here in Brazil, in fact there is a lot of brazilian exclusive decks Like the classic 139 and they created The day of playing cards setember 13 to tribute this deck
Nice review. Copag is PVC and KEM cellulose acetate, hence the smell. I like the Copag very much just like the KEM. Played years with Copags in my homegame. However, the ink on Copag tends to fade over time. Not a problematic but noticable. When you think of plastic cards try Fournier (Spanish) or Modiano (Italian). The Modiano is has the most sturdy cards. Don't think because of that, their premium cellulose acetate cards are like KEMS. But the ink is very deep and beautiful.
Awesome thanks for the info! I actually did a review of the Modiano cards as well and have 2 more reviews left of plastic playing cards to go. I will then do a final comparison of all of them. I'll make sure to mention your comments on the COPAG. Also, regarding the Fournier I haven't been able to find any poker cards but rather the traditional Spanish ones with swords and stuff. Any idea if they also make Poker style cards? I'm gonna do a review of the traditional ones.
@@DiggoDecks Ebay and Amazon UK have Fournier as far as I know, but they are expensive compared to my local store where they go for $9. We used two types for our poker games - the 2500s with standard index and the 2800s with jumbo.
As poker player and sleight of hand cardistry fan , these are built for different purpose, when people play cards they bend them, hold them tightly, peek at them at a steep angle and they always revert back to normal and hold their shape, that’s why card players love em. As for “magicians” I hate these and love USPCC cardstock, so smooth and fans excellent. These u can beat up and they’ll last a long time. You’d literally have to fold them in half lol. and as I was watching this video he said the same thing briefly. The smell will go away eventually, and they feel a lot more thicker. Also they have a bunch of cool new back designs.
Thanks for making these videos! I don't konw much about these stuff at all and what to get, I'm just use to the common Swedish deck so this opens up an entire new world for someone like me who are all new to this :)
Glad you like them! and Glad they're helping you out! These particular ones are plastic. Depends on what you plan to use them for. Card games? Card magic? Cardistry? All of the above?!
@@DiggoDecks Thanks :) Well for me it's all about playing different games with friends, so a nice luxury deck could just make things a bit nicer :) I did order the two Copag decks :)
first, i also thought the standards feel cheap, but over a short amount of time they've got better to my suprise. Since then i used the deck for about a month and a half or so and there durable i can tell. the ink comes of a little but in my opinion: for the cheapest option, the best option. edit: which is also another plus for me, is that they put a double back into the standards, bicycle for example does not
I "air out" my Copags, you just have to leave them all out in a spare room like on a rug or something for 1 day, flip them leave them out 1 day, and then they're very barrable unless you jam your nose up in them. I love your reviews.
Wait whaaat? You have 570 sub. I initially thought that you have atleast 50k sub. When you said that you only have 20 sub and they're commenting on the jokers, i was like whaaaa! I am a new subscriber from now on and making it 571😊
I have a huge deck collection. In general Copag's are not bad cards, but they are very often ridiculously overpriced. However, Copag is not the only one who takes advantage of playing card collectors and consumers.
Thank you! This mat was a pretty affordable one around 20 or so bucks from Amazon. If you want a nice one that's still sold at a great price try Patrick's Mats. He's my favorite close up mat manufacturer!

yeah these plastic cards are mostly geared for table games. Would be cool to see some magic support potentially.
Ngl yellow one is the most beautiful one so far

I love your reviews.
In my plan, I try to get a Copag set, which have the same back design of these, but the colors are both white on green/burgundy.
Yes those are awesome! Classy.
They slide facedown on a smooth surface to reach the player and stick face up to stay on the board.

Yoooo

That's euro new deck order if I am not mistaken, Copag is a cartamundi sub brand which is based in Belgium and their NDO is different.
Thanks for the info yo. I didn't know that the order was different over there!
The Copag 310 deck is printed by Cartamundi with good stuck and finish, so Idk why you don’t like it.
They felt a tad stiff. I may need to break them in. That's why I stopped commenting because I was like uh...I might be wrong here so I stopped haha
This was the Copag 310 slimline ver. the thinest one, because a lot of people said the original one was a bit too thick.
@@HUNRockman35 Yeah, I am going to try more of them. Not sure how I feel about them yet.
@@HUNRockman35 i actually have The og, i think
Hello bro what’s up? Hey just one question, the size of the wsop cards are different than the copag normal pack right?
Yo! Yep, they're like bridge sized cards. Not as wide as the standard poker size.
Nice videos ! Can you tells us what company sold them ? Direct from copag?
Yes! I ordered directly from COPAG! They had some good deals going for multiple set purchases.
Nice video, where'd you buy your card mat?
Thank you! This mat was a pretty affordable one around 20 or so bucks from Amazon. If you want a nice one that's still sold at a great price try Patrick's Mats. He's my favorite close up mat manufacturer!
Very nice
Do they have a cheap slippery feeling?
Nope, they've got grit and grip. That's why I always avoided cards made from plastic before because of that cheap slippery feeling.
@@DiggoDecks thank you so much
Copag jokers are the best. A++
