The problem with those sorts of games is, with the current model, you could buy 500 MGP for 5,000 gil and bet it all on 00. If you lose, you buy another 500 MGP for 5,000 gil and try again. Repeat until you win.

If they were going to introduce a form of gambling like that, they'd have to first put some restrictions on gil-bought MGP, possibly separating it out from other MGP into a new pool. That way, you could bet your 1,000 MGP that you earned from Triple Triad wins, but you can't bet the reserve you bought with your own gil.
