There should be an option where players can put down money to play against each other and of course chess.com gets a percentage. I think that would be awesome.

Online gambling is not legal in the US, at least not country wide and for something like chess, so that's not going to happen, and even if it was legal, it too open to abuse and a management minefield/nightmare.

There are places online where you can actually bet on chess matches like this, but in an age where engine use is easy, you have to be kinda dumb to do so.
