I'm getting really sick of having such a huge room with only 2 games..

They even have card tables with no use!

Right. Give the player a game in which the player actually can work in odds statistics to win the game and not 100% pure luck alone? Not a chance.

Japenese players can play Poker through their phones right now and collect coins rather easily from what I understand. Theres also some info in the game data hinting at blackjack.

Now those are games that I can play. Screw this 100% up to chance stuff. Luck never plays me that way. I have to control it, in some fashion. But I have my doubts we'll see any of those games, here.

Drawing from other games with casinos I used to play, I wish they had Poker. I used to really like playing Poker in Xenosaga. And Bingo in Dragon Quest VIII was kinda cool too. But I feel its unlikely they will add any new games until/unless there's another expansion.

In a computer simulation of blackjack we can reasonably assume that the "deck" resets after every hand, so card counting doesn't work for you. Other than that method (which is simply calculated luck over a long period), I can't think of any other way in which blackjack is more than pure chance of what card pops up for you.

Statistics. I don't cheat and count cards. Never did. But Blackjack still allows you to play the statistics game. You learn that far long before you do any of that card-counting stuff, anyway. Try it in Hoyles. The idea is that cards are weighted towards a higher statistic towards a certain value, that's how you can tell you have a strong or a weak chance in Blackjack.

Then the luck portion comes in. However, using that and being able to raise what you bet in a give hand, plus splitting, etc. You can play towards statistics and have a better chance coming positive.

Then you have that under 16 rule for dealers, which also plays a part. Statistics say that most cards in no matter how many decks used, have a value of 10 or close to it. That's why, for the dealer, having a 5 showing is one of the weakest places they could be. A high chance that they get a 15 on the flip and then have a tricky time not busting. A player would then try going for anything that beats that and staying. But if they feel uncomfortable, they might stay anyway and allow the dealer to bust.

Stuff like that.

I see no reason for Blackjack not to be in it. In most actual casinos, house doesn't hit at 16 and stays at 17, so it can be done like that. As for Poker/Hold em', I don't want it in the Casino unless it's vs. other people winning all their money.

I think you mean rigging to support the most 'valuable' player.

I've been praying for Black Jack from the moment I first entered the Casino. Oh, how I love Black Jack.
