Office Gambling

Anyone got any good games for office gambling among interns and analysts? We play clackers (dice game), but I'm looking for some new ones. Liars Poker is the only other game I can think of that is pretty easy, but it is to cliche to play in front of the senior bankers.

Now I'm not sure what this "Liar's Poker" is but this reckless gambling on Wall St has to stop. There's too much at stake to allow these risk takers to gamble with other people's money. Even if that's the serivice clients are paying for it's just plain wrong!

Don't worry Barack, you can just drop some more useless Billions on the economy if things get rocky again.

It doesn't appear this game was created with gambling in mind but that can easily be changed.

Came across this randomly on YouTube. Sadly (maybe) I never heard of this before but there is a crap load of videos of people doing it. Maybe a good break late at night.

PS, the chick in the video is an awesome singer.

Go ninja go ninja go!!!

Thumbs up on celo, great and simple game.
