I don't think this is true. It's a better strategy to keep bad players in the game by giving them real advice. To ensure they grow and have fun. But not so much advice that they surpass you. That's their own responsibility to seek out.

When those bad players stop playing badly the games die. It is super boring to play live poker with players that don't make mistakes. I know from experience

If people are just folding and folding maybe try playing shorthanded? Then optimal play is much more aggressive and fun.

Nope, even heads-up is boring live with people that play well because you are wasting more time shuffling than playing.

Even on-line heads-up challenges are played on 2 tables in order to not be boring and that is 500-600+ hands per hour
