I want a gambling anime that has the same level of energy and tension as Akagi or Kaiji but all the players are just REALLY bad at the game

Forgetting the rules and making stupid mistakes

Hikaru no Go has a very brief scene that touches on how good this could be

where Hikaru and his ghost friend are watching two total beginners play go

and lose it when one of them makes a huge mistake, then lose it even harder when the other player doesn't notice it and doesn't capitalize on it at all, and they have to stop watching

D'arby?

not really

Jotaro probably doesn't know how to play poker but D'Arby does and it's not really About that gulf

D'arby is a genuine gambler and Jotaro isn't really playing poker he's playing fucking headgames

(Or possibly just panicking and dissociating so hard it looks like he has a plan, depending on who you ask)

the dramatic turnaround into crisis when the hero realizes that his Three Pair hand isn't valid because you're only supposed to have five cards at a time

Gandhi vs. FSP, the anime

YES

The reference went over my head

a really good fighting game match between a guy who kind of knows how to play and a guy who has no idea what he's doing

OH THAT

I'm about to make a plurk about it

eyah

hold on

dammit I can't find that clip from ducktales
