While playing a game, my opponent reached out and mentioned that he plays for money. He couldn’t understand why I didn’t want to finish the game, and I told him, instead, as I preferred to reach a goal I had set and then move on to the next game. And next goal, one stone at a time, I called it - he said to me then How do I earn money? Here, I said I didn’t think any did that, he said Of course they do
iam never going to beat anyone in the near future, so I’m not thinking of making money let alone winning a game – but i find it curious he would say that like it was a matter of fact i should know this — is this a thing ??? can some of you make money playing a game that can be broken by a.i how fair is it, or was he just pulling my leg like a lot of you do here in forums on me. just interested thats all back to games now
OGS does not offer any sort of gambling or playing for money features.
It may be possible that some people are gambling on OGS games, with money exchanged through other channels, but I would guess that is incredibly rare and I’m not aware of any specific instances of that happening.
you can request betting system on OGS, where the audience can watch your live game while put their money on bet. the loser audience will lose their money. the player who win the game get 10%, and the winner audience get 90% (divided by total audience) plus get their money back
Oh, I see I didn’t know that could be done here – thanks for the input – how does the site stop people from cheating with AI software now it’s so good and can even hide your moves to look like real players, etc etc.
