When playing live poker, sometimes cards gets mucked to your direction and possibly touch your cards. That's a dead hand (even if you have aces). Or sometimes, the dealer sees a bunch of cards in front of him/her and grabs your cards by accident which = dead hand. It protects your cards from the dealer and other cards. Also, it tells the people at the table that you are in the current hand. Some of them are players lucky charm. Hopefully you find the right one.

I played a guy in egas one time that would lay his cigarette pack on his cards
to cover as well as to show interest in the hand.
Hope my knowledge of nothing could help.(LOL)

I have heard it is to protect the cards, because if a card accidently touches your cards your hand is dead unless you have them protected. The coin or whatever it is is to prevent this from happening.
At least this is what I heard.

What do the players on T.V. use the card covers for. Some of them have fancy ones and some of them use poker chips. Are they required if I go to a casino, What are they for?
