Default Re: Was asked to coach another player last night, now what?

I'm leaning toward a NO, don't coach him. You'll probably make more in the long run keeping a fish in the game, one donator really drives the action for the entire game. I personally don't get chummy with the weak players, I don't want to end up feeling guilty if we don't soft play.

Yep that is part of what is holding me back.

He is not a big donator in the game, he is just an easy weak/tight target for me to pick on. The drunks drive my game. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I have no guilt issues what so ever. If you put our money on the felt, it is fair game baby and my goal is to take all of it.

Tell him your concern with eductating a fish and then ask to bump the price up a bit.

If you would feel guilty about this, with a player that you're 'teaching', you shouldn't be teaching. This should be a prime lesson to be learned. You can still be chummy and friendly and play each other hard.
