Yea but if you are used to a standard deck it is just so annoying.

Tried it once and i could not stand it.

I'm the same way. I played at Planet Poker a while ago and did not know how to change it from a 4 color deck back to normal, and it drove me crazy. I hate colors in poker aside from the red and black. Blue. green, or yellow have no room in cards.

Aside from it annoying me, it is a good tip if you do not pay as much attention as you should. I do look (and carefully at that), so I don't think I need the four colors.

I too pay VERY CLOSE attention and therefore find it uneccessary after one hand i played a while back.

If the colors bother you, then use a magic marker and write club, hart etc. on the screen next to the card...you can then leave it up for the next hand in case the same suits fall in order...if not then clean the screen with acetone...no wait acetone screwed up my last monitor.

glad to see you jump in with the tip Jones T we can all use them. As for the colour decks it can be odd if your your not used to it but I think it might help someone who plays more than one game at a time or a new player. thanks for the tip and if you or anyone else has a tip take the next number.

ps special tip for crapshoot cover your monitor in plastic wrap makes it easy to clean

If you use colored plastic wrap then you can have a one color deck!
