I didn't listen to the hangout but from what I get, you want to create a gambling game within the client? If that's it, I disagree. I thought the main objective was to make a decentralized exchange. This will only add more work and will only be a distraction that imo, doesn't fit in at all, it seems kind of random and something out of context, that just shouldn't be there.
Those kind of things should go for Play. That's why we are having a Play chain, to create games. Not in the BitShares client. First things first. I'm really afraid this will just be a useless distraction that will only make it harder to achieve our objectives.
