No, and to clarify I think you have seen it: Yu-Gi-Oh! is the name of the franchise and the original series that not many know about outside of the fandom, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters is the retooling that focused on the card game and was the first one to be officially translated to English, the one where the characters acted as you describe. There's been 7 spinoffs since then, the first two of which were Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal.
Oh oh, gotcha. I only ever watched a few episodes when it was on TV in the US. And then a few more episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged ;)
Yep, Abridged was the Duel Monsters era. Just looked it up and seems it's still going (188 of the 224 original episodes done).
Oh wow, that's dedication
