So now, in 2017, Card Shark has started an Evolution, by changing the faces of Poker playing cards to make them more visible - The Phoenix Deck Large Index. The Parlour Decks changed the card visibility for Parlour situations, but what if you like to stay with the size of Poker cards that you are used to? However, neither type is a good solution. Our options were giant oversize decks that just look like a magic prop, or we tried to use the Jumbo Index Decks that were created for Casinos. We, as magicians, sometimes struggle performing with these cards for a larger audience, due to lack of visibility. The faces of the playing cards have not changed for more than 100 years, being perfectly suited for Poker and other card games. While others design fancy collectors' decks, the Phoenix Deck was made with care for workers. Some already call the Phoenix Quality the new standard for playing cards made for magicians. Read on for the "how and why."įor years, Card Shark worked on improving the Quality of playing cards, and if you ever have used a Phoenix Deck, you know that you are handling a deck made in Casino Quality. The Phoenix Deck Large Index has now arrived, and not a minute too soon! With a 50% larger index, your card magic is immediately more apparent to your audience. In 2009 a Revolution was started, as the Phoenix Decks were launched, specially made for Magicians! A lot of trick cards are already available like blank cards and double backers, marked decks and trick sets, the range of trick decks is constantly growing.To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to aweb browser that supports HTML5 video Sometimes Small Changes can make a Huge Difference!.The faces also have a well hidden, but very visible oneway marking, a unique feature of all Phoenix Decks.So you are able to leave the cards on the table after your performance as a souvenir for your audience. The Phoenix card case uses the traditional layout of the Bicycle card case, also there are NO tricks or information on the card case that the cards are optimized for magicians.The backs where especially designed to hide additional information in the gaffed cards.The back design has a very visible but pretty well hidden oneway marking.The back design is modern and classy, not too fancy to draw suspicion.The common used (old) Aces were included in the deck during the first two printing runs, so that we could find out if our larger Aces or the old Aces would be the ones more preferred! Feedback helped us to completely move over to our larger Phoenix Aces, so that we now can provide two Jokers, a blank face card and a special game card!.Fine details make them beautiful for close-up performances also, these fine details blur out on distance and will get invisible on stage. All other Aces are specially designed for better visibility.The Ace of Spades is pretty close to the Bicycle Ace of Spades.Phoenix faces and Bicycle faces are identical with a few exceptions.
#CARD SHARK PHOENIX PROFESSIONAL#
The decks are punched through the backs with freshly sharpened blades to allow perfect Faros and Riffle Shuffles right from the start, professional magicians know the difference.Superior to any Bicycle Deck in standard Supermarket Quality. Going one important step further: all the USPC decks of our Phoenix brand are produced in the highest quality level: Casino Grade.
Printed at US Playing card company on Bicycle cardstock, with air-cushion finish, so the cards have the well-known Bicycle quality.Well hidden and secret that no layman would ever find! And if he did find them he would not think about it as a weapon! A deck that has secret weapons built in that can be used but don't have to be.
A deck that should look nice and modern, but not at all fancy or suspicious. I am talking about a working horse for all magicians around the globe. This deck is not the 531st deck of fancy looking cards that hits the magic community on a monthly basis and that ends up on a collector's shelf. The idea was to establish a new brand and design especially made for magicians.
