If you were really into the card playing of INSIDER, you might also enjoy KAKEGURUI for the same reason.

KAKEGURUI follows a bunch of rich high schoolers who spend all their time conning each other in different types of traditional games. It's almost similar to a prison (quite like the one in INSIDER) where certain characters are treated horribly and second-class citizens and have to do horrible things. It also has its comedic moments, since the FL is a new student who is able to outsmart all the con artists like the ML was able to do in INSIDER.
