It's absolutely morally clean. The people losing money made their choice.

Similarly I don't see anything wrong working for a betting company or even a company that produce dangerous or addictive drugs.

I consider it morally wrong to work for the government or for criminal organisations which steal money under the threat of violence or kill people for reasons other than self defence.

Personally I find it immoral to support things that I believe cause more harm than good, regardless of whether the participants were compelled to do so by violence.
