      What I tried to express is that when decks are

      • NOT the same
      • AND are sealed
      • AND there is a distribution of the content (namely some rare and non rare items)

      then the purchase of that deck itself is gambling.

      That does not imply anything about other situations, namely decks that are all the same can still be used for gambling when there are played with rules that do introduce randomness. A single coin for example can be used to bet.
