How to Use Printed Planning Poker Cards
- Print one set per estimator on heavy paper or card stock, at 100% scale.
- Cut along the dashed lines. Optional: laminate for reuse.
- Read the story, then everyone picks a card face down.
- Reveal together to avoid anchoring, and discuss the highest and lowest votes.
- Re-vote until the team converges, and record the estimate.
