I voted no only because bastard was missing from the poll.
I am traditional, I tried the 4 color deck once and I missed crap in my hands because I found the colors too distracting.

I didnt like it the first time I tried it but when I started to multi-table I found it to very useful. I now use it on every site I play and I cant see myself going back to regular colors.

if im multi tabling i use 4 colour deck to make it easier on the eyes when ur tryin to focus on so many things.
But when im only playin on one table then i'll stick to normal colour decks.

Personally I stick to the regular deck, tried the colored deck once and did not like it to much. GL

I dont do a lot of multi tabling but I do use it at every site I play. I guess it is just because its something different to change things up.

I never used to but decided to change it a month ago or so and now I wouldnt have it any other way. It doensnt make things any different but I suppose its good for those that multitable and have there screens tiled.

Have been using 4 color deck since they became available... why wouldn't you remove any possibility of mis reading your cards? Could not multi table without them :D

Wow, Im really surprised to see how many people play with the 4 color deck! I can see how people can see it as an advantage, I just cant get used to it. I can definitely see how people multitabling with 4 color decks can come in handy, I have been in the same situation of glancing over and thinking I was on something big only to realize that I should have paid more attention! Might try giving it a whirl again...

I dont think theres much of a point. But it makes the decks look a litter cooler and more colorful.
It's got nothing to do with being cooler or colourful, like ppl have said before me, it is so flushes stand out more.
Makwa said:
yes of course much easier, and poker decks were originally 4 colors BTW.
Beat me to it, yes decks did originally have 4 colours.

I never liked the 4-color decks myself. I play as much as 6 tables (though typically 4) and never have any trouble distinguishing flushes, but then again I have 3 monitors, all 24+ inches running 1920x1200 each, so I play with my tables at pretty much regular size. If I play more tables or less monitors and have to shrink my tables down, I might reconsider, but for now I prefer the traditional cards.

4 colour

Its always a good idea to use the 4 colour deck while playing online. Most of the time your multi=tabling and this cuts down on confusion and mistakes. :joyman:
