MODERATORS
I would if they were selling them with chips and instructions on betting.
Why?
Instructions on betting can be easily found online, and most pick-up games use cash anyway. No kid is going through all the effort of using chips if they're going to gamble, so getting chips may actually be a deterrent for getting into gambling.
You don't even need instructions on betting, betting or wagering is something that people can figure out on their own quite easily, the behavior is often demonstrated in real life in other non-gambling scenarios "I bet ya can't climb that tree", so if we assume a game about playing cards can be considered gambling, than the assumption that Playing cards themselves would also be considered gambling materials seems plausible, but it is meant to highlight the absurdity of the situation.
Because that's what tips that product over the line, as sold.
Balatro features no wagering or betting of any kind.
