Gurth> All Special Skills, IMHO.

the basic skill is "Gaming", with concentrations Cards, RPG, Abstract,
and Chance. specializations are a specific game (i.e. poker,
GURPS<tm>, chess, and craps, respectively). for each skill there is
an associated "design/operate" skill (sort of like B/R for tech
skills).

feel free to add your own concentrations as appropriate.

physical games (basketball, water polo, shuffleboard) would be better
described as concentrations of the athletics skill.
