I don't mind CSGO's flavor since it doesn't cost you money like poker but I can absolutely see somebody trying to buy multiple keys in hopes of unlocking a really good skin.

again this doesn't impact the gameplay at all and I'm happy to earn some money. was able to buy another title on steam with the money accrued

I don't know if you're just naive or not, but you're paying with literally the most valuable currency you have.

That doesn't mean it isn't fun to do so, although there's a very high chance you'll come to regret the number of hours pumped into such games and the way they kept you engaged in their dopamine loop.
