STAFF! 

Why are you supporting this GAMBIT.com SITE? Im sad to se that this is on the site! 

THis is a chess site not a gambling site. Chess has nothing to do with gambling. Please remove it.

It's a sister webpage, made by one of the people who made chess.com.

Promoting and advertising an online site where poker and casino games are beeing played, has nothing to do with chess and its spirit. If the site has a need for more income it should find it somewere else. Even from its members in a form of a raise for example. But seeing the casino chips in a chess place It makes me uneasy. 

Didnt the staff knew that this is obscure for the chess community? 

Its uneasy and suspicius. 

Chess has nothing to do with jacks and casino chips. 

The argument that the play is free and not for real money is rejected by the fact that casino games, even when played free, will push some people to real gamble. Chess has nothing to do with this. 

And the healthy chess community dont want to be a part of such a thing.

Chess.com is pretty tolerant of this in the forums, as long as you aren't spamming/doing an advert for a different chess site.
