Probably should have been less informative.

The 4 Pips card (European) is only available in the regular size (2 1/4" by 3 1/2") which is the bridge size. I've never played with that size card so you might want to ask people's opinions on how they like them. I read that that is what casinos use but I haven't been to a casino in years. They are also only available in the Florence design:

As far as places to buy them take your pick. I bought mine on eBay but there are several places online to buy them. Ask around who likes who best

Here are some on eBay (about what you would pay and they include the shipping: I ran a search for "kem 4 pip"):

Kems are just great. I have played with the Bridge size, just dont really like them. Much rather the Poker size. I am 99% sure that the casinos in Atlantic City use the Poker Size. I will check this weekend.

We had to use blackjack cards at Harrah's for about a month and a half because of some printing snafu at the card manufacturer's. I believe they were the "bridge size." It's just not quite right. You can't put your finger on it, but you know the cards are wrong.

A friend brought over some bridge size cards and they just didn't feel right to me either, but I don't want to claim that they aren't right for others.

I bought the Kem Arrow 2 Deck set, poker size with the regular face. I see these available on eBay:

I have to admit I was wrong. I just got back from The Trop in Atlantic City and realized that they use the Bridge Size cards in their poker room.

I still really dont like that size I do prefer the Poker size.
