 Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name is David and this is the deck review. Alright, so today we're going to look at the Bicycle Bridge Size Domino playing cards. Now, right away, I should tell you these are Domino cards, not playing cards. But they are printed from Bicycle. You can find these in the retail stores. And so just if you were curious what these were, I'll tell you. So maybe you've played Domino's before or you've watched your mom or your grandmother play Domino's. Domino's is a game that you play with rectangular tiles. Those are the Domino tiles. The Domino gaming pieces all come together to make up a Domino set. Sometimes you call it a deck, sometimes you call it a pack, which was why it would be good to have a deck of cards that would be Domino's. So that kind of makes sense. A traditional set is 28 Domino's and a Domino's set is generic. One is just like the other. They're similar to playing cards, similar to dice. You can find different types, but they're all going to be the same. They have nicknames like bones, cards, tiles, tickets, stones, spinners, depending on what region of the world you live in. And a Domino is just a rectangular tile has a line dividing its face into two different square ends. So each end is marked with a number of spots. You can call those pips or nips or dobs. So very similar to cards again. Or they're blank. And the backside of the Domino's are supposed to be indistinguishable. So most of the time they're completely blank or they have a common design. So again, very much like cards. The earliest mention of Domino's, you can find them in the Song Dynasty in China. However, Domino's first appeared in Italy during the 18th century. And although it's not known how Chinese Domino's developed into our modern game, it's speculated that Italian missionaries in China may have brought the game to Europe. The front of the tuck case just shows you that the Domino set, and so that you know, says that bicyclecards.com, says that they're a Christian finish, there's some ad copy, shows you what the front of the cards and the back of the cards looks like, the standard tuck seal, and it's bridge sized. That would be better for gameplay than say poker sized. And better shaped because they look more like a Domino, which would be more rectangular and less square. The back design of the cards, very generic, has a nice thick white border and scroll work and frames, like I said earlier, to make one Domino indistinguishable from the next. Alright, so I really don't know why I would tell you how Domino cards handle, because they're not meant to be that kind of card, and plus it's a bridge sized deck. So it's still going to be retail stock, still going to have a modern cut, still going to have an air cushion finish, so you're going to have nice glide on these good, nice round edges, nice feel. But again, it's a deck you're going to play Domino's with, this is not a deck you're going to do cardistry with or magic with. Alright, the Domino cards are everything you'd expect, has the indice in the corner that tells you exactly what the Domino is for a quick reading, and then has the Domino shape in a classic fashion on the front. And so I think these are nice for holding, you know, when you play a game where you need to keep the Domino's close to your chest, and I think it's great for portability. You know, take your Domino's camping, take your Domino's to the hospital or to, you know, class. The compactness of the tuck case and the, you know, thinness of the cards, I think makes this great for people who want to play Domino's but in a portable setting.
