Research: Styling a card game

The movie '21' (2008) is a great film to take reference to make a card game looked stylized and interesting (as Blackjack isn't the most interesting to watch as a third party outsider). Some of these tight extreme shot etc could be used in our piece.

Opening of '21' - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnlDNBoZ1_Y&feature=related

Simple Game Play - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NThsFs4Pwo&feature=related (from 03.15 - 05.15)

Without narration - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cIJYtSuDRg&feature=related

(from 03.42-04.50)

Although this all has to be adapted for Poker as it is a different game etc etc etc.
