I would possibly argue There is no prize. And there being no prize, from my limited understanding, it wouldn't satisfy a tenet of gambling. There is no prize as everyone is buying a card.....yes, it goes to the next tenet of gambling of chance...but we don't get that far as there is no prize. If you guys are worried about it being gambling, don't do it. I am not a gambler either but have bought a card in a break before . And I received exactly what I bought.... a card.

As for the other poster asking why should you care what tiebreaker makes--so you can decide if participating is a good deal or not. If the profit is too high, and you like the concept, it may pay you to get a group of friends together, pool your money, and do a communal break where there is no profit.
