I was wondering if it is frowned upon, or expressly forbidden to throw game 2 of the championship round to a bot in order to force game 3; so that one would get the extra money and playing minutes.

No it is encouraged, if you think the opponent doesn't have a chance to upset you in the 3rd game.

A lot of people tend to do that if they win the first game and think they have the better team. The downside is if your opponent surprises you and upsets you in the third game, but I don't think you will have to worry about that.
