Gambling Cards

I'm looking for cards like Goblin Game and Mages' Contest that have a gambling kind of feel to them. Other cards that are just generally fun and not overly chaotic are okay but I'm primarily looking for cards with a gambling kind of theme.
And I brought it up for obvious reasons.
I guess what we need to know is what you define as a "gambling" effect, more specifically. To a degree, every Magic card is about taking chances.
If you want more chaotic stuff, though, see: Possibility Storm, Scrambleverse, Thieves' Auction, Warp World.

As I stated, I'm looking for fun/gambling themed cards that aren't too chaotic not cards meant for chaos. And by gambling themed cards I mean cards such as goblin game or mages' contest that include gambling kind of concepts such as making bids or raising the stakes.

My bad, I misread your original post and thought you were looking for chaos.
Uh, well, the "Join Forces" cycle is all about raising the stakes: Alliance of Arms, Collective Voyage, Mana-Charged Dragon, Minds Aglow, and Shared Trauma.
Plague of Vermin comes to mind, too.
Anything with Clash on it would fit your criteria, I think, too.

Mana Clash. You're welcome.
Special mention: Final Fortune.

Grip of Chaos may be too chaotic but it's definitely a gamble. Also, Psychic Battle, Risky Move, Tide of War.
