Default keep your customers

I think you are a very wise player. Our home game has a lot of really bad players. When it's heads up, on the river, and I'm sitting on a set of Aces, do you think I put the bad player all-in, even when I know Mr. Loosie would do it in a heart-beat? Heck no. I don't want him to think I'm mean, and I don't want him to focus in on me and start to play more intelligently. A friend of mine was recently banned from this home game (by two of the terrible players) because they said he's only there to take their money, isn't friendly, and raises too often and and too much. This player is excellent, plays 6/12 B&M, and routinely spanked the bad players at the home game. His mistake was that he always tried to take every last chip, and when he had a stack he would bully the table. Now he's no longer allowed in the most profitable home game I know of.

So, definitely, if you enjoy the game and players, I think it's very wise of you to lose some of the money back.
