Tally-Ho Circle Back Two Pack RED/Blue

Tally-Ho has one of the best shuffles of any paper deck I've ever used. It requires almost no break-in period, you can start using the cards right out of the box. Other brands like Bicycle feel like cardboard and require hundredş of shuffles to become even halfway decent. The only better feeling cards I've ever used were Hoyle PGC, which isn't made anymore, and some of the plastic decks, which are usually a lot more expensive.

Excellent for doing card magic. Possiblyy favourite cards

Great cards for a relatively low price. The Tally-Ho Circle Backs are an excellent right out the box All purpose card. They don't have a super custom, extravagant look so they are great for casual card games and magic. They are not super stiff and don't require a lot of work to break in and don't have that air cushioned slippery feeling that plagues me for hours right after i open. For this reason, it's definitely a deck I would have multiple packs of at the house. For cardistry it is definitely a great starter deck, I tried for weeks to learn how to faro shuffle on 808 bicycles and even the more expensive Joker And The Thief deck- but failed for days. Bought the tally hos and within the day, I had a rough faro shuffle. I am now fairly proficient with the faro shuffle on all three decks. The tally hos are smooth but not slippery, and best of all, durable. 100% would recommend. They may not be the flashiest, but for both at home practice and for practical use these are the best I've used.

So these were my first decks of the regular Tally-Ho playing cards that I have just added to my comprehensive playing card collection. As they are classics in the playing card industry like Bicycle, Bee, and Hoyle and carry an excellent reputation, I felt that they needed to be included. I also purchased the Metalluxe versions of these cards in both red and blue as well as the Plum Blossom edition. These are perfectly fine as playing cards go, but not in the same league as their premium Metalluxe editions or the standard Bicycle decks I own. They are a great value for the money, and perform ok for magic but not what I would use personally for cardistry. Overall I am very happy with my purchase.

For some strange reasons the only cards available everywhere are Bicycle. I like them, but there are a lot of other great brands, like Tally-Ho, which are maybe my favorite cards. A bit overpriced, here, maybe, but they are beautiful.

These cards are great especially considering how cheap they are compared to every other option.

Tally-Ho

Slick, sturdy and legendary. Watch the movie the Sting and see these cards referenced in the poker scene. The choice for high rollers and whales. Best cards you can buy at any price.
