Poker refers to playing cards. A deck of playing cards has 54 cards, 52 of which are regular cards and the other two are side cards (king and joker). The 52 regular cards are divided into groups of 13 cards, and each group is represented by four suits: spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. Each suit includes 13 cards from 1 to 10 (1 is usually represented by A) and J, Q, and K. There are many ways to play, such as the more typical way of playing Landlord.

The global playing card industry is dominated by a few large manufacturers, with the top five manufacturers (such as Shanghai Yaoji Technology Co., Ltd., Ningbo SanA Group Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Santu Group Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Binwang Poker Co., Ltd., and Cartamundi Group) accounting for about 50% of the market share. China is the world's largest producer of playing cards, contributing more than 70% of the output. This makes China occupy an important position in the global playing card market, with obvious advantages in production efficiency and scale. In terms of product type, general-purpose playing cards are the most popular, with a market share of more than 90%, while personal entertainment uses account for most of the demand, more than 90%.

Due to the serious product homogeneity of playing cards and high market concentration, major manufacturers maintain their competitive advantage by improving production efficiency and reducing costs. However, some international brands, such as Cartamundi Group, still occupy a high-end market share with their brand awareness and quality advantages. Although Chinese manufacturers dominate in terms of output, there is still room for improvement in brand premium and global market layout.
In terms of regional distribution, although China is the main production base, the European and American markets are still the main consumption areas for playing cards, especially personal entertainment and gambling activities provide impetus for the continued demand for playing cards. In addition, consumer demand in the Asia-Pacific region is gradually increasing, especially in emerging markets such as India, where poker entertainment activities are becoming increasingly popular. In the export market for poker cards, demand from developed countries and regions such as Europe and the United States still occupies an important position.

From the perspective of future development trends, with the advancement of technology and the rise of digital entertainment, the poker market faces opportunities and challenges. Although traditional poker cards still have a stable demand, more and more consumers are attracted to online entertainment methods, especially the rise of new forms of entertainment such as digital poker and virtual poker cards, which may have an impact on the traditional market. In the future, manufacturers may explore combining poker cards with digital technology, provide innovative products to meet changing market demands, and maintain growth by expanding online sales channels.
