There have been problems as of late with regards to the decks in play at the 2011 World Series of Poker. Due to a printing issue, low spades (the {4-Spades}, {3-Spades}, and {2-Spades} predominantly) are "marked" on the back. For the last hour or so, players in Event #16 have been tediously studying the backs of their cards to see if they are marked.

Because these specific cards truly matter in 2-7, they are changing decks on every table. Each table will now use one deck from the 2010 World Series of Poker. Hopefully this will eradicate the issue, and the players can worry about playing their opponents rather than examining the setup.
