Or you could easily not tell the 6 and 9 apart, I'm not kidding. Not so much if they are your hole cards, but as community cards these SUCK!

L.A.
something fishy, the 9 and 6 in the first post are upside down compared to the way the face cards are shown in the following post. Was that first pic altered?

Nothing was altered, this is how poorly the cards were designed.

I read this morning that enough people complained they are ordering new decks made immediatly and will have them early part of the week.

If you look close enough you can see a line under the 6 and 9 that would help define which is which I guess, but still horrible.

Where are you reading this? I can't find anything.

It just seems odd that the guys laying out the format would have the correct position for the face cards and ace that we see, and drop the number cards to the opposite sides!

I would agree that it needs to be fixed, though.

I saw that story, but it has no mention of any 6/9 controversy. I have yet to find anything on that, and I would think it would be everywhere.

Thanks.

Like I said, it sould be changed, because people are used to seeing the number in the top left of the card. But, if you lose a hand because you misread the cards, that's all on you. They still have different pips!
