Gambling or fantasy? The only fantasy is people pretending it's not gambling.

Casablanca (1942) (movie)
Stars:
Humphrey Bogart ... Rick Blaine
Ingrid Bergman ... Ilsa Lund
Claude Rains ... Captain Louis Reault

Rick: How can you close me up? On what grounds?
Captain Renault: I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!
[a croupier hands Renault a pile of money]
Croupier: Your winnings, sir.
Captain Renault: [sotto voce] Oh, thank you very much.
[aloud]
Captain Renault: Everybody out at once!
