I bought a copy of Mac-Poker by Data Pak Software. Most
impressive! Chips and playing cards are moved about and shuffled
by funny hand-icons.

The poker algorithm it implements is pretty good too.

All in all, it's the most impressive visual game on a
bitmap screen I've seen since Xerox Alto days. Highly recommended.
