What is the logic or strategy (if any) behind setting a big ticket table and then mid game offering to abort? I have never understood it. Is it the amount at risk that causes a player to want to run away and think their opponent will feel the same? Is there some kind of psychological ploy to the exercise that I am missing? I never ever accept the offer to abort and always find myself at a loss as to what gives. Anyone want to enlighten me?

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.
