There are a lot of card brands and types out there. whats your favorite brand and kind?

Bulldog Squeezers: cos they look different. Unfortunately, they have a one-way back.

Then

Tally-Ho

Then

Bicycle

Then

Bee

i personally like the black tiger decks from bicycle. They just look so cool. unfotunatley im afraid that the spectators will be focused on the deck in my hand and watch a little to "closley"

My favourite playing cards are Tally Ho, followed by Bicycle. I use Bicycle most of the time because gaff cards and almost any packet trick you care to mention, always comes on Bicycle stock.

I like Tally Ho but use Bicycle as gaff cards are in Bicycle stock and I use some effects that need them. Also my sven, ID and haunted decks are all bike.

Arn't all of them one way backs?

Under certain circumstances, yes... but not half as obvious as a Squeezer!

The others have nuances, whereas the Squeezers stand out like a sore thumb!

I understand what you meant know.

Yes and Bulldogs are borderless which makes them better for certain things but worse for others.

As for handling, can anybody really tell the difference between Bikes and Tallies? I convince myself that I can every time I use them, but I doubt I could pick them out blindfold.

Tally Hos- very durable and high quality

Studs- Cheap, durable, soft feel

Vipers- ultra stiff and slick- fun to play with once in a while.

I'm very partial to Studs. Other than that, about a toss-up between Bikes & Tally-Hos.

By the look of it a set of mixed fakes and blanks on Tally-Ho would go down a storm… do they make them ?

For one-way backs, I use Bicycle League cards. I like the design on them.

I have to say that the Tally Ho AOS is impressive looking.

I use BEES as my primary cards and Bikes as a secondary deck - I prefer Bee's as they are borderless and I think they look better - just personal preference :S

never tried Tally Ho's or viper cards...might have to give them a try

Same here! I think Tally's are more long-lasting though, the first deck of them I ever bought is still going strong though it's all dirty around the edges.
