Very bad fish players but it looks like you cannot win.
I personally don't have a problem with it. Any player, even a bad one, when they are winning, will be playing better than their normal game. This usually means (for a bad player) they won't be playing as loose or be bluffing as much. They don't need to play poorly (gambool!!) to try and win money - they have already won.
It seems after a terrible player goes up like 1 or 2 buyins on you they will just be making their marginal small mistakes like calling too wide pre, and when you're trying to exploit them for their stack they will, for example, fold to your huge river VB because they don't have to risk it. Have you ever shoved in on a river knowing he's got TP and will call to have your villain time out and instaleave the table up a buyin? That's what is happening there.
When they're winning they're not going to be playing as poorly, and you might be. Seems like an okay time to quit for me. And think about the other positives - you just made that fish's day. He sat down, "challenged" one of the masses waiting for headsup action, WON, and had his opponent leave the table! I'm pretty sure the fish have emotions too and that's gotta feel victorious and bring them back for more. It's okay to let them win once in a while
