I'm working on a scenario, we play over Zoom and VTT, where the party visits a gambling hall needs to play games to earn some coin as well as get the attention of the pit boss of the establishment.
Question:
Is there within D&D material or suggestion on games that can be played in-game be it dice or a card game that I could use?
Three Dragon Ante is a game played in world that has a real world component. It's a fun enough game. I've ran it once in game and my players seemed to enjoy it.

That does look good, thank for showing me that game, but unfortunately, I'm playing this over zoom and vtt so something like Three Dragon would be difficult to implement.
Yahtzee is pretty much poker with dice. Not hard to do with a basic dice roller. Aside from that, with a bit of looking around you should be able to find sites or apps you can use as well.

dealer rolls 1d10, or the "Giant," setting a target number, or the "Knee"
if dealer rolls a 1, the Giant "Kicks" and the house wins
player rolls 2d6, or the "Halflings," trying to match or exceed the Knee
on a double 1 roll, a snake scares the Giant and bets push
if the player rolls an 11/12, or the "Maw," the Halflings are eaten and the house wins
players who hit the Knee exactly may split the dice by doubling their bet. when splitting, players roll one additional die per split, and all the normal rules apply.
the player may split a second time if they wish to become legendary
Payouts:
if the Knee is 2-3, house pays 1:1
Knee is 4-6, house pays 2:1
Knee is 7-9, house pays 3:1
Knee is 10, house pays 5:1
