>Refusing this offer is very bad sportmanship.

Why on earth?
For me it is exactly the other way around: betting money on your sport activity
is bad spormanship?

By the way: the way you delt with this match seems to show it is you that wants
to avoid it. This 1000$ seems an excuse not to play the match itself.
Chess does not need a bet.
Otherwise find a sponsor, or play the games for the "honor" of your program and
of your word

...after all chess mimics a middle-age battle where the honor was the most
valued thing among knights....
