Default Re: Poker Handicapping?

Rebuys hurt bad players more than good players.

Giving bad players more chips is the only way to really deal with it. No matter how bad a player is and how good his opponent is, it would be possible to set the chipstacks such that the bad player has a 50-50 shot of winning. If you give Phil Hellmuth 1 chip and a huge donkey 1,000,000 chips, the donkey, no matter how bad he is, should beat Hellmuth a large percentage of the tiem.
