I gotta go with Blackjack! It's punchier as a title than The House Always Wins-- that actually sounds somewhat ponderous.
Blackjack! I feel exclamatory.

Jack Black!

Okay, this is been in my head since this discussion started:
From Ocean's Eleven:
Danny: Cause the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes. The house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet big, then you take the house.
Rusty: Been practicing this speech, haven't you?
Danny: Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt I rushed it.
Rusty: No, it was good, I liked it.
