I strongly advocate not prying or sticking anything in there. One slip and your pry bar goes too far, you've damaged the card.
I set the slab on concrete and use a hammer and screw driver. I tap around the edges, patiently cracking the plastic. Eventually the front side will separate from what remains. No risk to the card.
I save the little paper slips. I didn't at first, but now I keep them. It's kinda neat to look at the slips anytime someone is opining about pop report accuracy.
