These 7 Ideas Will Help You Pick"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Poker card\nprotectors have become very popular over the years and are used by many players\nas a trademark item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One famous example would be WSOP champion Greg \u201cFossilman\u201d Raymer, who used to bring fossils from his personal collection to use as a card protector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/fossilman-card-protector.jpeg\" alt=\"FossilMan's fossil card protector\" class=\"wp-image-32053\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image: Twitter\/FossilMan<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you\u2019re looking to get more involved in the live poker scene, you might want to get one for yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re looking to grow your personal brand and make a statement or just want one for practical purposes, I&#8217;ve got some ideas that could help you decide what to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s talk\nabout poker card protectors, why they\u2019re used, and how they can help &#8211; or hinder!\n&#8211; you at the poker tables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Are Card Protectors?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A card\nprotector is any item you bring to the table to protect your hole cards during\nhands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the most\nbasic sense, a card protector can be used to protect your hand from getting\naccidentally folded, which can sometimes happen in live poker if your hand or\nan object is not on top of the cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid\nconstantly keeping their hand close to their cards, some players choose to use\na card protector, or simply use one of their chips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, these items have other purposes than simply protecting the cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> In fact, they are more often used as talismans and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/10-weirdest-lucky-charms-around-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\">lucky charms<\/a> than anything else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Poker\nplayers are a fairly superstitious group of people on average, with many\nrecreational players believing luck has more to do with poker than skill, which\nis why any favor from the poker gods is a welcome sight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In reality, a poker card protector usually won&#8217;t help you that much \u2013 but it won&#8217;t hurt you too much either and are often a great talking point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everyone agrees, though. Poker champion and coach Jonathan Little believes there is a strong argument for not using them at all &#8211; but more on that late). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now,\nlet\u2019s look at some ideas to inspire you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Poker Chips <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common card protector out there is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/poker-chip-values\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">poker chips<\/a>. Many players don&#8217;t bring a particular card protector but rather use the chips they\u2019re playing with to protect their hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a\nsingle chip of the lowest possible denomination is pretty common, although\nplayers use other denominations and even groups of chips to protect their\ncards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A word of\nwarning: If you\u2019re going to use poker chips as your card protector, make sure\nyou always use the same chip denomination and use the same number of chips to\nguard your cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reasons\nare quite obvious, as you don\u2019t want to give away the value of your hand and advertise\nthat you have a premium hand or a medium holding in different situations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively,\nsome players use poker chips from other venues or a particular poker chip as\ntheir card protector throughout their careers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most\ncasinos and poker rooms won\u2019t mind if you bring in a chip that has nothing to\ndo with their chips and use it as a card protector at the tables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Personal Lucky Charms<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we saw\nwith the example of Greg Raymer, some players like to use their own lucky\ncharms at the tables that are totally unrelated to poker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He used\nfossils, but I have seen other players use things like little rocks, toys, and\nother items of sentimental value that they believe bring them good luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Religious\nitems are not off the table either, as some players believe religion and poker\nmix well, and who\u2019s to say they don\u2019t?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\ngot your good luck charm from your wife, your priest, or your shaman, you can\nuse pretty much any small item that you believe is lucky as your card\nprotector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Items like\ncoins, small jewelry, and other small items that won\u2019t cover up your cards are\nfair game and won\u2019t be banned in any cardroom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019ll only start being problems at the casino when you start bringing bigger items that completely cover your cards or could be used to interfere with the game in any way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n    <blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" >      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/poker\/comments\/aoit14\/these_are_my_3_favorite_card_protectors_do_any_of\/\">These are my 3 favorite card protectors. Do any of you have favorites?<\/a><br> by      <a href=\"\"><\/a> in      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/poker\/\">poker<\/a>    <\/blockquote>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Animal Figurines <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Little\nanimal figurines are another popular choice for card protectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some\nplayers just think they\u2019re cute, while others have a more superstitious view of\nthings and want to channel energy through their spirit animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way,\npay attention the next time you are at a big poker tournament, and you\u2019ll see\nthat there is no shortage of pandas, dragons, and dinosaurs on top of players\u2019\ncards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again,\nthe only thing you should be concerned about is the item not being too big, as\nyou won\u2019t be allowed to use a card protector that covers and hides your hole\ncards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Cartoon Characters<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like\nanimals, various cartoon character figurines can be used as card protectors,\nsometimes having a purpose beyond superstition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can\nfind one that\u2019s funny or silly enough, you may start to get some notoriety in\nthe playing field, which is always a good thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you get\nlabeled &#8220;The South Park Guy&#8221; players will want to play hands with you\nand, in most cases, will play them less optimally than they would if you were\nan anonymous player. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Things like\nprops and card protectors can definitely have a purpose in the live poker\nsetting, and you can supplement your poker skills with a little bit of fame and\nhustle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, players like Phil Hellmuth and others who\u2019ve built their brand on their behavior get all sorts of unsolicited action, so why shouldn\u2019t you try to do the same?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1505\" height=\"961\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/poker-card-protector.jpeg\" alt=\"man with a card protector model of himself\" class=\"wp-image-32048\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>You could be like this guy, who brought a mini version of himself as his card protector &#8211; and got a lot of kudos for it.

Metal Chips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving on\nto metal chips, an item that\u2019s been specifically made for the purpose of\nprotecting cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Card\nprotectors have become so popular that companies have started to manufacture\nitems with this particular goal in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you look through Amazon, eBay or Etsy, you\u2019ll see a variety of silver and golden-colored card protectors with various designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re usually slightly bigger than your average poker chip and quite heavy in hand, making them ideal for keeping your cards safe from getting folded. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1198\" height=\"892\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/poker-card-protectro-personalised.jpeg\" alt=\"Personalized poker card protector\" class=\"wp-image-32051\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Why not personalize it? [Image: Etsy\/HardCheeseMetals]<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. LEGO <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>LEGO isn\u2019t\njust for kids. You\u2019ll see people using LEGO Minifigures as card protectors quite\noften in poker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason\nis that LEGO offers so many different sets, allowing fans of any franchise out\nthere to get a figure that represents their favorite fictional world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\nenjoy <em>Star Wars<\/em>, <em>Game of Thrones<\/em>, or <em>Harry Potter<\/em>, you can\neasily purchase a LEGO set with your favorite characters in it and show your\nfellow players what you\u2019re into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. Classic Lucky Charms<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve\nalready covered personal lucky charms, but if you don\u2019t have one then there are\na number of things that are widely considered across different cultures to be lucky.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s no\nwonder, then, that you\u2019ll see quite a few four-leaf clovers, horseshoes, or\njoker faces being used as card protectors at the poker tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a\nhorseshoe on top of your cards might seem like a Wild West clich\u00e9 but the game\nyou\u2019re playing is Texas Hold\u2019em, after all, so why not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>An Argument Against Card Protectors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So as mentioned\nat the start of this article, there is an argument against using card\nprotectors altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jonathan\nLittle is one of the best poker coaches out there and he strongly advises\nplayers not to use them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His\nreasoning is that using a card protector adds another physical element to the\ngame of poker, which can be used to exploit you and get information about your\nhand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He even\nshared an example of this, where he noticed a player on a final table who was\ncommenting on using a different way of protecting his cards when he had premium\nhands and when he had medium-strength holdings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This should\nobviously be avoided at all costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However,\neven if you\u2019re not so transparent with it, you could still be giving things\naway with your card protector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance,\nmany poker players look at their cards before it is their turn to act. If they\nhave a hand they want to play with, they will place their card protector on top\nof the cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This alone\nis enough to tell players in earlier positions that you have a decent hand,\nwhich can prompt them to make plays that directly exploit that fact, such as\nfold hands they wanted to play or trap you with monsters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I\u2019m\nnot sure that card protectors should be completely eliminated from the game,\nLittle definitely makes a strong argument. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If his\nargument isn\u2019t enough to put you off, hopefully this article has given you some\ngood ideas on what items you can use and where to get started. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poker card protectors have become very popular over the years and are used by many players as a trademark item.&nbsp;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":32054,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>7 Ideas For Poker Card Protectors \u2013 Best Card Protector Ideas<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Card Protectors \u2013 Discover 7 ideas for card protectors, plus learn why people use them and why they\u2019re not always a good thing.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/card-protectors\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Not Sure What Poker Card Protector To Use?
