I've played the real ones of some of those. (I assume there are real ones behind them all?)
Primero, for instance, is a late Rennaisance card game that is the ancestor of modern poker. One and Thirty, on the other hand, greatly resembles blackjack.
That said, if this is reapproved I will make up a new one for several of these and complete it.
Oh yes, reapprove, please.
Sam, now that we've bonded through prom stalking, you should have this reapproved for Dok and I.
