The jumbo index refers to the significantly larger pip size (the letter and/or number in the corner of the card), making these cards ideal for players with vision challenges or anyone playing in dimly lit environments. The larger indices allow players to peek at their cards with minimal lifting, reducing the chance of opponents spotting your hand. The 2-pip design features indices only in two corners, creating a cleaner aesthetic while maintaining the oversized readability advantage.
Modiano playing cards are renowned for being substantially thicker and heavier than other 100% plastic cards on the market. This premium thickness provides a steady, solid impression during gameplay and ensures the cards maintain their shape and structure better than standard plastic decks. The well-textured surface makes these cards easy to hold, shuffle, and deal. Many serious players consider Modiano Platinum to have "amazing texture" that rivals even KEM acetate cards.
The vibrant, detailed printing in rich colors ensures clear visibility while the generous color saturation provides a luxurious gaming experience. Modiano Platinum cards are praised for their excellent durability, resistance to bowing, and consistent quality through heavy use. While extended heavy use may eventually lead to some fading starting with thin black borders, the cards remain fully playable throughout their long lifespan.
Modiano is recognized as a Historical Trademark of National Interest by Italy, an honor reserved for Italian companies with more than 50 years of history that have contributed to spreading and strengthening "Made in Italy" worldwide. Whether you're hosting poker nights, playing bridge, or enjoying any card game where easy card recognition matters, the Modiano Ramino Platinum Jumbo Index 2 Pips delivers superior visibility, Italian craftsmanship, and premium performance—backed by over 150 years of cardmaking excellence.
