In a limpfest type game, how many non-suited broadway cards do you limp in with. I've been doing AK AQ AJ and KQ. Is this too tight a limping standard?

I think as you start getting into LMP, if you are the first in (or with a single loose limper in front of you) limping with AT, KJ and QJ becomes okay. Other than that, seems fine.

Geez. If you're not raising with AKo and AQo, what are you raising with?

Some of the big hands you describe, suited or not, are near-automatic raises for me, and probably for most players here.

I open-raise with AKo/AKs/AQo/AQs 99% of the time--at least. I regularly 3-bet with AKo and AKs. For me, 3-betting with AQo/AQs is player-dependent, but I do it a fair amount of the time.

AJo and KQo are significantly weaker and my play of them is more situational, but most of the time I would rather come in raising with them than limping, especially in late position.

Genenrally, I don't have much of a problem pitching them to a raise, but, again, this is player-dependent.

Based on your post, I would guess you're limping preflop too much. Raise it up!

I also often raise with all 4 hands I mentioned, but the point of my question was the cut-off for folding non-suited broadway cards if 6 or 7 players are routinely limping. Does anyone stay in with any 2 cards 10 or higher in these situations?

Only if they are suited or I have very good position. Even with position, I'm not likely to play something like KTo.
