We do but i'd suggest an offsite place to do it like lichess, torn chess was removed (access from site, you need the link gangsta linked to find it but officially it was removed).

Cash bets on chess in Torn would have to be very fast games, speed chess. Otherwise, people would mostly be playing one chess engine against another.

I like chess. I rarely play a game anymore, but I still do chess tactics and endgames on chess.com and chesstempo.com pretty much every day. And sometimes on ichess.org. But Torn doesn't blend well with chess, which is why it died when they tried it before.

I don't think there were ever merits for it, but Torn did used to have chess. (Technically still available, if you use the direct link above, but it's no longer integrated into the game, so if you don't know the link, you can't get there.)

The problem with almost every skill game is that you can use an engine to cheat. That's why we don't have any, just luck games. The only exception is the bookies, where odds are matched from elsewhere.
