Comments.Text: Cheating is already such a huge problem on sites with no money interaction, i.e., chess.com, chess24.com, lichess.org. Why would these problems not be infinitely worse with a gambling website?

Comments.Text: Since chess tournaments have been forced to cancel or do events online these days, you can probably play in one of those (hosted by ICC I believe) and compete for real money. There are also occasional qualifiers into real money events that goes on in various sites - usually only titled players will win any money, because there is money involved.
