DNB 4-Deck Canasta Cards Set - Blue and Red Decks with Point Values, Canasta & Hand and Foot Rules Included

This card set gives you four decks of standard tournament-size playing cards: two with blue backs and two with red backs. Each card shows clear point values and highlights wild cards for quick reference during play. The set includes printed rules for both Canasta and Hand and Foot games, making it ready to use right out of the box.

• 2 blue-backed decks (52 cards each plus jokers)
• 2 red-backed decks (52 cards each plus jokers)
• Canasta rules sheet
• Hand and Foot rules sheet

Card dimensions and quality

Each card measures 8.8 x 6.3 cm (3.5 x 2.5 inches), which is the standard tournament size. They are made from blue-core paper stock — that gives them extra stiffness and resistance to creasing. A durable plastic coating on the surface helps them hold up through repeated shuffling and dealing.

Why are point values printed on the cards?

Having point values directly on every card speeds up scoring, especially in games like Canasta where cards carry different point denominations. The wild cards (jokers and deuces) are also marked so you can spot them easily during play. This reduces time spent referring to a separate score sheet.

Games you can play with these decks

While the set is designed with Canasta and Hand and Foot in mind, the four decks work for many other games: Poker, Rummy, Go Fish, Bridge, Spades, Hearts, and more. Having two different back colors means you can combine decks or keep separate games going at the same time.

Specifications at a glance

Common questions about this card set

Do the decks come in a carrying case?

The product description does not specify a case or box. The four decks are typically packaged together, but you may want to store them in your own card holder.

Are the cards suitable for large tournament games?

Yes, the tournament-size cards and printed point values make them practical for game nights with multiple players where quick scoring matters.

Can I use these decks for games other than Canasta?

Absolutely. The cards are standard playing cards with suits and ranks, so they work for any classic card game. The printed point values are useful for scoring games but do not interfere with games that don't use them.

What makes blue-core paper better?

Blue-core paper is designed to be stiffer and more resistant to bending compared to standard white-core paper. This helps the cards last longer and stay flat even after heavy use.
