How about putting them in a big book for a few days. That may flatten them out.

What do you use to do your IPs, do you put the cards on a board using photo corners?
If not, that is the best way to go. Holds them in just fine, I don't see any reason why they would fall out if you do it that way.

Yeah, thats how i keep them for ip, but with all the shuffling around and how they curve i don'want them to work themselves out.. I've never lost a man yet, and I don't want to start now.

I put them in a tight team bag with the cards front then back and that way they flatten each other out also

I have used chrome many times for IP graphing at both Scranton and Trenton. I use a artist's spiraled sketch pad and photo corners. I have never had a problem with them curling and falling out. The weight of the book keeps them flat and the photo corners help prevent the warping as well.

I use cardboard for my cards. not sure where I got it, but it isn't the corrugated kind, it is nice sturdy pieces. But moving around my boards I've had a card come off on occasion. One time I was trying to get guys off the bench after warmups at a hockey game. Card fell down in the tunnel. Thankfully there was a nice trainer/someone to pick it up for me. Was a team set card to.
Corner I had on it was due for a replacement. So shuffling things around you definitely could risk a card falling off the board even if they are secured with the photo corners.
