Stocks about to undergo reverse stock splits?

Ash asked:

I am playing a stock market game for my economics class with $100,000 in pretend money. I really want to win and I am wondering about a new strategy I have come across. Is it a good idea to buy stocks about to undergo reverse stock splits? For example, I am thinking of buying JAVA because it is about to have a 1 for 4 reverse stock split. I read that that will make it go from $5 to about $20. If only the stock price increase is accounted for and not the share decrease (e.g. My shares will stay the same while the price increases), doesn’t that seem like a logical thing to do? If so, do you know of any other stocks about to have reverse stock splits? Thanks!
My teacher would not make me decrease my amount of shares though. Like if I buy 10,000 shares at $5 then it goes up to $20 wouldn’t I make $100k? My teacher only looks at the stock price and not the fact that there has been a reverse stock split. So he wouldn’t make my 10,000 shares reduce to 2,500. I hope that makes sense. We’re not playing like the real world.

      For every 400 shares will be issued for every 400 shares it is the stock split the companys assets or liabilities so there is the company is the opposite with an ordinary split the structure of capital changes.
      Stock price decreases accordingly in the company is just the opposite with an ordinary split the same as before.
      Stock split the company is no change in the number of capital only the same as before.
