I have yet to find these super loose games with 5-8 people to every flop. Know where I can find them?
How has your game been?

My game is getting better and I am still about $50 ahead, not counting bonuses, at the .5/1 level. I have good days and not so good days.
Maybe this is wrong, but I don't take the number of people seeing the flop as a rigid thing. I also play much tighter from early position, more so than the chart suggests.
I apply the "loose" starting requirements almost all the time, unless I the table is really tight. At Party I often find a table with 5-6 people limping in to see the flop. Maybe two of them will drop out to a raise, so 3-4 see the flop. Yesterday I played at a tight table, with maybe 2 people seeing the flop. I stayed (and had a breakthrough in my game, which I will post about later) but usually I will leave these tables. If only 2 attempt to see the flop, I tighten up.
