Here's the original request from the 3.0 forums. It can probably be improved on significantly with Flash, or possibly using AJAX. eBux/eShop integration is also a thought to add to this, as it seems to be pretty solid in regards to the point system and stability.

I would LOVE to see this hack!

Here's the idea:
Using the UCash / UShop point system, a Texas Hold 'Em style Poker thread would ROCK!

Maybe have a "Bot" user as the dealer.

Starting a game:
User starts a game with "POKER-GAME" as the beginning of the thread title... they can put anything else after it... like "POKER-GAME: BigDaddy's Table" or something.

Next in the thread, they define the # of players and betting limits, wilds etc...
[players]5[/players][betlimit]100[/betlimit][wild]2,AS[/wild]

Next, await joins.

User posts in thread: [join]USERNAME[/join]

Once join requests = [players]... the table is closed for new players.

Then the bot kicks in, and deals cards to everyone, and shows the dealer cards.

Betting rounds then go into play:
[bet]10[/bet] from each user... Bot will tell the user how much is needed to stay in, as well as post the amounts when each user places a bet.

Player with the highest hand wins the pot.

I know the concept needs a little refining, but this is something that I think would take off like a rocket.

Let me know your thoughts or ideas on this. I'd be highly interested in seeing this Mod for vb3 if someone wants to take the time to build it.
