You don't even need to go back that far: e-gold, liberty reserve.
Fun fact, bitcoin client had a poker lobby in it, and it was announced mere weeks after Liberty Reserve court ruling jailing its founder for 20 to life for money laundering.
Individual or groups behind bitcoin were watching that Liberty Reserve trial very very closely and e-gold/liberty reserve was very popular amongst the online poker industry ;)
There's many more interesting facts you can discover but I won't spoil them.
Thanks. Looks like it was more GUI code copied from something else then removed a few commits later rather than it actually having a "poker lobby" feature as implied though.
