Because it is in the best of their interest. The rake of multitabling winning players does not compensate for the deterioration of the games. Fish get hammered quicker, need more reloads or leave earlier (bust).

Suppose Party Poker eliminated all the winning players. The break even players would become the new winning players, and many of the losing players would become the new break even players. Keep repeating that process and soon you will have no players at all. However, while you still have players, some will be losers, some will be break even, and some will be winners.

It is possible to have a pokergame that nobody could win, but for that to exist two things have to happen. 1) all the players have to be close in skill. 2)The rake has to be sufficiently high to eliminate the small skill differences between the players.
