Betting in a PvP Arena?

[Archon_Wing]

I think it'd be a really amusing idea if in the future they could stage like really hyped up matches between the top players in the pvp ladder, if there is one, in the future and you could bet gold on whoever wins and of course there would be a gold fee. The winnings would be based on the prize pool, so there would be a gold sink.

Also players could be made to fight each other for gold. (But again there would be a fee to prevent match fixing or illegal transfers of gold)

However, would this lead to legal issues regarding "gambling" though?

Another suggestion is an "Untwinked PvP Arena". In this, all opponents cannot bring any items or characters in. Instead you can choose any class of character, and the game will randomly generate a a bunch of rares for each slot; both players get the exact same items to choose from. They'll get to view all the classes and items available. Then both sides will pick a class, and then proceed to equip appropriately.
