* They're good guys, but this should still count: In one ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin|TheSeries}}'' episode, it looks as if Genie, Iago and Carpet are playing a game of poker, complete with chips and Iago wearing a little visor on his head. Until Genie says "Got any ''nines''?" Especially absurd since neither poker, nor go fish, nor ''playing cards themselves'' should [[AnachronismStew have been invented yet]].

* ''Series/KamenRiderW'' has an episode in which the MOTW is the owner of a casino. In order to win back the people who went bankrupt at the casino, whom the MOTW can turn into coins, [[TheHero Shotaro]] and [[TheSmartGuy Philip]] play a bunch of roulette, and when Shotaro gets sick of Philip doing all the work (Philip's mind is fast enough to calculate where the ball will land) he challenges the casino owner to a game of Old Maid. The game ends up finishing via Shotaro throwing the Joker at the casino owner's head. Doubles as a pun, since Shotaro himself is considered the Joker of the series and his base left-hand form is Joker.
