As discussed, Blackjack is not a great fit for twitch chat as each game requires multiple messages to be sent per player (e.g. intial draw, hit, hit, stand, result)
With the global ban throttle on number of messages that the bot can send, such a game would use up much of the message bandwidth and slow down all the other features of the bot.

This was the reason behind the Bank Heist game. It allowed gambling to be grouped and reduced the amount of result messages the bot had to send out.
