How about the slightly easier* Poker? OpenAI seem to be mildly interested

(To be fair, re (card) games: I'm also only interested in seeing Cyborg-on-Cyborg action. Lee vs a-G almost qualified :)
I need to ask, when playing against AI players in poker games, are they fair (= work on the same sets of cards, are not aware of your hand) or do they get to cheat?
(I played a MTG game years ago and it was not fair, the opponent's deck was not shuffled but they always had cards that provided a certain experience)
They are indeed fair. The strongest poker bots are not AI in the way it is commonly defined. From my understanding they calculate the nash-equilibrium for a simplified game and extrapolate that to the full game.
