Both have main characters that are geniuses and both are about games where it is possible to win a ridiculously large sum of money, also both main characters aim to take down the organization involved in their respective stories.

Pretty much the same, I mean, Fukumoto's gambling style is way different, but if you like one, you can like both.
I see Gambling Emperor Legend Zero as a less clean art version of LG, but with higher stakes and for me, a more interesting story. I also enjoyed the rival Shirube in GELZ more than Yokoya in LG, as I thought Shirube was a much greater, fiercesome opponent who Zero NEVER manages to one-up. I also enjoy the focus on Zero versus the dual focus on Nao+Akiyama, as Nao annoyed me a tiny bit at times and Akiyama was more interesting
Similarities: clever solutions to gambles/wagers, super intelligent male lead, super intelligent rival, the superintelligent person is burdened with helping those around him
Contrasts: Tobaku Haouden Zero
