Gambling is for fools and liars. Wise people tell the truth.
@DesuMaiden fools and liars the goated ones, there are a bunch of stories about them

dostoyevsky even wrote a book called "The Idiot"

I don't bother with it. Gambling is an epic fail, after all.

I was never a big fan of gambling anime. I prefer anime shows about FBI/NSA agents catching cybercriminals online.

Nope, not really, like I don't specifically look out for gambling anime, but I would watch one if it seemed interesting enough.

Anime with games of betting, high stakes, and questionable situations are often some of the most high-stakes stories around. And both Kakegurui’s and No Game No Life’s levels of excitement are nothing short of incredible from their very first episode. But these are not mere games of chance; these anime take mundane gambling and make it a maelstrom of strategy, risk and psychological warfare. What’s notable, is that those series don’t simply chow down on gambling for fun, they explore the shadowy underbelly of being human, when every high piles up the evidence for madness and every low could signal disaster. When you consider just how absolutely batshit insane Kakegurui is, you could probably make a pretty good argument that you’re already in an alternate reality of gambling madness.

I like the gambling stuff but haven't really watched all that much of it. I tried watching the Akagi and Kaiji series off and on but just haven't had the time to watch them all the way through. I am watching the Touhai one now...characters really be dying, almost dying and losing body parts for some underground mahjong.

I do like the high stakes survival type stuff too but only if it is done right and the characters aren't insufferable. A lot of them I have seen just aren't good. The only one that I have really liked so far is Tomodachi Game and that is just because I enjoyed watching Katagiri just being a complete twat to everyone.
