This games are really cool, and I wasn't expecting them. Probably should have, but I didn't. So far, I've only played No-limit hold 'em, but I have to say that to this point the game AI is not too bad. I've probably spent 1-hour playing, and I can't say it's any worse than poker games I've played on XBL or other systems.
Also tried the 5-finger fillet. Won some cash, took a few cuts. This game seems like it will fade fast in terms of interest.
Can't wait to try blackjack, liar's dice and horseshoes.
How are the mechanics for horseshoes? Worthwhile?
Did you find BJ well-done in terms of AI?
What did you think of liars dice? Gimmicky or legitimate fun?

The AI seems fairly good for poker. Black Jack I've only played for a few minutes. From what I could tell, the AI was pretty fair. It seemed like there was a multi-deck deal with a constant refresh, but I didn't play long enough to get a good feel for it.
I enjoyed Liar's Dice. My game was 3 of us. You start with 5 dice each. You roll the cup and hide the dice. The game is kind of a bullshit/euchre combo. You bid on how many of a certain dice face is showing around the whole table. Betting there are 3 '6s' trumps 3 '2s'. You go around the table raising until someone calls either a 'Bluff' or a 'Right on'. The goal for the bidder is to bet for 'at least X or more'. So when a bluff is called, if the bidder is wrong he loses a dice. If the caller is wrong, he loses a dice. If you call 'Right on', the caller loses a dice if the bet isn't exactly right. If the bet is exactly right, all the players except for the one who called the 'Right on' lose a dice. The last person that has dice wins. I was very good at the game... though the AI wasn't as robust when there was limited dice left on the table... of course, I think the game also established a reputation for the players, and their bids might be reflecting that.
Horse shoes... on the PS3, the R3 stick controls the motion of the throwing arm... back and forth. The R2 (shooting) button controls the release. You have to try to match a back swing and a release point, and right/left inflection. I got schooled the one and only time I played... 11 to 2. It was enough to get me to want to get better at it.
