* TWordEuphemism / AmbiguousSyntax: A rather edgy example for 1956. The sign in front of Canasta's casino reads "Nasty Canasta's Casino And Gambling H--l." Making it pretty clear that this is no ethical gaming center.

* VisualPun: Like most WB cartoons, these abound.
** When Bugs tries to re-think depositing his gold in Nasty Canasta's bank, which is just a cardboard booth, Nasty replies "Sorry, this bank has just folded." and proceeds to fold the booth into a small square ''with Bugs inside''.
** Nasty tries to tempt Bugs into playing poker:
---> '''Nasty Canasta''': Would you like to play maybe draw poker?
---> '''Bugs''': Well, I ain't too familiar with it, but I'll try anything once. ''(quickly draws a fireplace poker on a piece of paper)'' How's that? Do I win?
** While explaining the rules of poker, Nasty Canasta says that the object is to have the "bigger hand" of cards. Bugs quickly removes one of his gloves and blows into it, inflating it to enormous size.

Six months later, Nasty has traveled to San Francisco, where he has opened a lucrative casino ... lucrative for him, as -- to build his bank for the casino -- he has bankrupted (and then some) everyone who has come to play his clearly rigged games. Bugs, who had spent the past several months plotting revenge, finds Nasty's casino on its opening night and, dressed as a hayseed hick with the persona of a naïve, backwoods country bumpkin decides he wants to play. He first "confuses" a slot machine for a "telle-o-phone," but -- under the ruse that he is phoning his mother for money -- immediately hits the jackpot much to Canasta's shock.

* SilentSnarker: The angry and disapproving facial expression on Nasty Canasta's horse as the crook loads saddles Bugs's gold nugget onto him makes it pretty clear that he's not exactly fond of his master.

That's the main synopsis of "'''Barbary Coast Bunny'''," a Creator/ChuckJones-directed WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes short about the time the ruthless gambler and the rabbit he tried to play for a mark crossed paths.

Nasty spends the rest of the film trying to recoup his losses and one-up Bugs ...:

* First by playing roulette. When Bugs continually wins (by hitting the No. 23 each time) despite Nasty doing everything he can and more to rig the game, Nasty's last resort is to cover No. 23 with a block of wood, then setting the wheel for the ball to land on No. 00, which he does. However, Nasty celebrates too wildly, striking the table so hard to contain his evil laughter that the ball bounces into the knot in the wood block on ... No. 23 (allowing Bugs to double his already massive winnings)!

* Later, by playing draw poker. Bugs unnerves Nasty by playing dumb with him -- he literally draws a picture of a fireplace poker, blows up a glove to illustrate "the biggest hand", then threatens to walk after Nasty loses his patience-- When they finally get around to playing, Nasty gets a full house. Bugs meekly declares that he only has two pair, which cannot beat a full house ... until he reveals the two pair is actually four of a kind ("All I got is ... a pair of ones, and another pair of ones!" ... all aces.

Nasty, realizing his months of work at literally stealing all the money from the locals was undone in mere minutes, tries to rob Bugs at gunpoint with one more game ... Russian roulette, under the pretense that it is a game of chance. Bugs, remaining in character, naïvely spins the revolver bullet cylinder like a slot machine ... and a mass of coins inexplicably pours out the gun's barrel!

Now with the rabbit's revenge complete, Nasty tries to figure out what went amiss and see if he can get lucky ... but accidentally [[AshFace shoots himself in the face]] and keels over stunned. Bugs delivers the final line to the audience (in his normal voice): "Da moral of dis story is: 'Don't try to steal no 18 karats [carrots] from no rabbit.'"
