Except that there is no real currency being spent
It isn't illegal at all as there is no functionality in place for people to exchange their ingame money for real money (and this is also against ToS which is enforced). This is the same argument most games with loot box functionality also use and in most countries it works (and it's also why Valve couldn't really mount a proper defence).
Is it unethical? Yes.
Is it Illegal? No.
I don't really get the sudden hate on casinos either, it feels like it's more being used as a scapegoat.
Note: I am not a lawyer, so I could be wrong.
