UNGAR Playing cards - Seconds
Please note - this deck is classed as a 'second' meaning there may be imperfections to the tuck box.
Stu Ungar was a phenomenon — a man who played cards like he could see through time.
A prodigy who rose, fell, and rose again, leaving behind not just a legend, but a lesson.
His story is one of brilliance and self-destruction, of victory and vulnerability — the eternal duality of the gambler and the artist alike.
The UNGAR Playing Cards were created in his memory — a deck designed not for the table, but for the soul.
Each card is a quiet nod to Stu’s legacy: sharp, elegant, and unapologetically human.
Printed in collaboration with The Ungar Center for Hope, proceeds from every deck go toward supporting the Center’s mission — helping those struggling with trauma find a path back to themselves.
This isn’t just a deck.
It’s a mirror — a reminder that genius often walks hand-in-hand with darkness, and that even the brightest lights can burn out too soon.
UNGAR Playing Cards — FEATURES

“There will never be another Stu Ungar.”
But his spirit still shuffles in the shadows of every great game — and his legacy lives on through The UNGAR Playing Cards.
