Default Re: Best way to play for a bad player

Okay that definitely makes sense but thats not really what i was looking for. Lets put another stipulation on the situation. Assume that the player has only one week to play and must make at least $500 from his $100 or give all the money back, then what would you tell the player to do?

Are blackjack and craps out? Seems better than trying to force a bad player to try to hit big at poker.

That said, if he's not a winning player, I think he's best-off at a 10/20 limit table where he has enough for the minimum buy-in and he'll be riding almost pure variance. When you're trying to get the best results for a loser, you want to up variance as high as you can.

There's no way to increase his EV enough to make a real difference in getting to $500 in a week. Just make it as much of a gamble as possible.
