It's really annoying when in a money game, my opponent keeps pressing the abort button in every round when he's really far behind or he thinks he's really losing the game. Please take that button out! It's really annoying! You won't see people taking chips back from the table in a casino after game starts, will you?

When you receive an Abort offer from an opponent ... before you quickly answer NO, please select the check-box 'Do not ask the same question again".
This will result with auto-denial for any further Abort offer within the same hand.
As all Ticket games are fully recorded, frequent abusers of Abort offers or similar unsportsmanlike tactics can be warned and then fined and then may face other administrative actions.
As opposed to land-based tournament games, on Internet Abort button is justified as opponent might face real issues such as technical difficulties or can be distracted by any external 'emergency' event e.g, phone, boss, dog, fire, etc.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
