There could be tournaments with entrance fees and the players that do the best get money. The site could also take a small commission from the entrance fees.

I should imagine charging to enter a cash-prize tournament would require a thorough knowledge of the gaming laws of all the countries that have RHP members.
It's a nice idea, but probably much too much arse-ache to become reality.

But there's still the problem that invigorate pointed out...
More people would be prone to cheat to get a chance to win the money.
In my opinion, winning money in tournaments is completly against the principles of RHP. Most people come here to learn or make friends, not to grab cash.
