Description

    BACKGROUND
  • While playing poker a player is dealt cards. During each round of play it is the player's obligation to protect his cards from being removed by the dealer, this is known as having your cards “mucked”. The most common way to protect a poker hand is to place a casino chip on top of the cards after they are placed back down on the table. Other items have been specifically designed to serve this purpose and they are known as “Card Covers”. Specialty made chips, coins, figurines and other objects are currently used.
