I think the quote is trying to say that games are a good way to conceptualize what morality is. Morality is like a game where everyone knows the rules, everyone agrees to abide by these rules, it makes sense for people to follow the rules, and people accept the consequences. He's not judging the morality of these games, he's just trying to show you that morality is the "game of life" so to speak.

With regard to the morality of poker, I know several rational people with gambling problems. The only reason I find poker slightly immoral is that I am often profiting off of someone else's addiction.

I guess you have to decide for yourself if your personal gain and the charity that you give is worth more than the pain and suffering of those that you take money from. I personally prefer not to think about it . . .
