The room owner needs to promote events that appeal to the market that pays the bills. Mixed Couples recreational events can bring a crowd that spends freely.
One couples event I encountered that worked for the house and was fun had the women drawing for partner or drawing to chose a partner. The men paid the small entry. Then we played Scotch Doubles 8 ball. Another Scotch Doubles event paired partners based on fargorate, with highest and lowest paired. It was fun and interest.
McCorrie's in Woodinville made the Friday night tournament a meat shoot to discourage "money players". Very few of them are vegetarian.
The $3 entry and good food helped make it a success, filling up every week.
It seems odd when some want to play for money and even big money but don't want any money players.
