How do you like your playing cards: shiny & stiff, brand new out of the box - or - an easily bendable, well worn deck?

• They make a certain kind of "sound" when you shuffle them too.
  Thanks!!

• WHAT? You got my attention with that one!!
  I'm asking about new or well worn playing cards - and you're telling me what image/design you like best.
  Ok .. well .. on that topic .. are you telling me YOU have Spider Man playing cards? If so, I'm happy! (Remember, I'm the one with many comic books - and collectibles. And yes, I have a lot of "Amazing Spider Man" comics) In fact, reading a Spider GIRL trade novel right now and there's a new series coming out soon for Spider WOMAN.
  Ok - so now I'm sidetracked TOO. lol
  Er .. thanks! :)

• My spider-man cards are slightly worn - but it wouldn't matter what condition they are - because I like my playing cards to be THEM. lol :D

• YES ... lol (Nooooo ... I'm just glad you have them. Very cool)
  But then, truth be told? Come with me ... (we walk down the hallway .. and into the room where I've put lots of interesting things). Look - there's Spider-Man on a bottle of bubble bath .. and there on a frisbee .. and there on a toothbrush .. and there on a can of food .. and there on a placemat. And we've not even gotten started yet. Inside that cabinet there? Take a look at this old, vintage wrist watch. Oh wait .. no .. that's my Wonder Woman watch. LOL
  Ok .. never mind .. I'll stop now. :)

• I probably do. I have a variety of playing cards. I even have plastic playing cards. They're sort of cool because they're waterproof and unbreakable (to a point...if you want to break them you can). : )
  But I'll take a look at some point to see if I can find them.

• I'm not sure if I'd call it much of a collection. Maybe it is. I've never really thought about it as such since I open and use them. LOL.

• Ok .. think you have great priorities:
  (1) on which cards - a good hand no matter the kind of deck
  then
  (2) for feel in the hands - a well worn deck
  Nice answer. Thanks!

• Yes indeed .. they take some getting used to.
  I like to do that "double shuffle thing" .. where you mix the card together in one direction, but don't push them together into the deck. You leave those interlockded but partially "out" then bend the whole deck in the opposite direction and "flutter" the cards back down. Easy to do with an older deck. A challenge to do with a new one. You definately risk "shooting them" up into the air and all over instead of back into place as a deck. LOL
  Have no idea if "words" described it very well.
  Hmmmm ... (yet another typical side track): maybe I'll head to YouTube and see if they have any "card shuffling videos"!! If they've got THIS one I'm talking about, I'll ask another question about it. If not? Er ... I'll just quietly go about my business like it never came up. LOL
  Ok - one new deck for you! :)
