Re: UPDATE
Why not just say that you want to play a deeper stack poker but you don't want to price anybody out. This way you can all play for the same money but have more maneuverability.
Or just leave things as they are. If his losing at your games is affecting your relationship with him, then talk to him about it away from the game as diplomatically as you know how. It's not your responsibility to parent everybody, and to change the entire game because of one person is rather absurd.
