Huh. Apparently playing games for real money inspires the kind of dodgy activity found in real sports. Either way, 12 people have been arrested for trying to fix Starcraft 2 matches for bets and stuff and there's involvement with organised crime.

Makes me wonder what's next for eSports. Doping? Soviet style training from hell to win at League of Legends? It's all getting a bit too grim for my liking...
