Nor is this one. And, as a public service, I'll clip the long trail of messages. I am dazed and confuzed.  I would like them to fix it in a way that those with true gambling addiction get treatment,  that there be some program of amnesty, and they keep those naughty yakuza from extorting them for what sounds like for many, a freaking girlie game of hanafuda.  I'm still in shock over intense gambling on Hanafuda - that sweet, seasonal flower card game.  I can only imaging the pokeman traders and the hello kitty fiends.  Save Sumo.  Amnesty for the gamblers,  As for those pesky extorting Yakuza, off with their fingers,
