On one hand I don't want to turn the tap off but on a more human note, this guy should probably be with his wife taking some rest instead of dumping off his 8th buy in (he's a lawyer, assume he has too many millions to give any fs about the little 10/20 game)
In general, do you want the recs to have a fighting chance (so as not to run the well dry too soon / keep the games going longer ) or are you ok to see them dump multiple buyins with obviously no chance of winning?
I dont want to win money off someone who is incapacitated, thats sort of date rapey. but if a dude is just drunk and partying, im there to give him a good gamble. the crazy thing about degenerate gamblers is...THEY COME TO THE CASINO TO LOSE!!!! Losing is an important part of the ritual. Acting like a white knight changes nothing, they are going to take their beating with or without you. As a winning poker player you are a mini casino host, a good casino host can keep their customer losing 24/7 all weekend in vegas and be dying to come back the next weekend.
