This year (and last) the World Poker Tour started using a different type/brand of cards and I have been desperately trying find out what kind they are, brand/type/index. The number have a more squared look to them. Does anyone know what kind of cards they are using? Here's a pic:

That is definitely the cards I'm looking for, but are you sure that's Kem?

I enlarged the pic and I see no brand name on the Ace of spades. If it is Kem, do you know what they call the design? I tried looking on Caragalis and Amazon, but can't seem to find those cards.

he wsop (world series of poker) alongside the WPT (World Poker Tour) uses cards made by the company "Copag Cards". They use decks with 2 suit colors (Black for Aces and Clubs; Red for Diamonds and Hearts).

The WSOP has never been exclusive to Copag. They have used other a number of other brands over their history, including recent history.

As for the WPT, are you saying the answer to my question is Copag makes those cards? If so, then what "Edition" are they called?

Given that Copag is the most popular and I have done a lot of research on Copag, I don't believe Copag makes those particular cards.

They are definitely KEM but I couldn't tell you which. Email that pic to KEM and ask. I'm sure they could help

I got a response back. They said that was not one of their index types.

So, why were you so sure it was Kem?
