play chess for money secure way, is that possible?

you have competitions in real chess tournement for money, whats wrong with that? if thats online posible, only secure.. i dont see anny problem with that..leave word peace out of it:)
JugoBoss:

Your argument about real chess tournaments is a little bit confusing. You also get real people in this case and while I agree there is some form of live-cheating it certainly is a lot of harder then computer cheating behind a display. Besides the odds someone cheating IRL Blitz is probably 1 / 1000. All live cheating is related to long time games and even then the odds are so small.

In most of the big tournaments every player get scanned.

Point is:

In the internet / on the computer every Hacker / Scammer / Scumbag will find a way to fuck up your life if he really wants to, ESPECIALLY if there is money involved.

You name an idea about a online game involving money and I will give you at least 20 reasons why it's a bad idea.

Starting with chess:

1. Money regulations.
2. License
3. Taxes
4. Hacked accounts
5. False identity
6. Stolen money which is used to play ( hacked paypal accounts, bank accounts, etc.etc )
7. New ways of safe-computer cheating. In fact such a platform on a big scale would improve the whole cheating business. You can bet it will be abused on lichess as well once the software is good enough. They will make viable human mistakes, nobody will ever tell it's a machine.
8. Nobody is willing to invest money into chess. Before you start the game you know you will either win or lose. It's not like poker. Chess is 100% skill. There is no luck. You can't count on the fact your opponent will die before the game ends.

You know why poker is so successfull ? You can win with any hand at any time. You don't need to know the rules and you can win. Longterm on the other hand consistency will pay off and the gambler lose.

I will take any argument about ONLINE-CHESS including money and I will explain everyone why this is 100% a bad idea and not gonna work.
Nope, online chess for money can never be 100% secured from cheating because player doesn't necesarry need to cheat all the time, he can use help from an engine only once or two times in a game, which is enough to change course of the game, and you can never find out he was cheating.
