Being mostly unk here this wil probably sound like "wah, wah, I can't win" and it is a little of that (wouldn't be posting it otherwise). But it's also a serious question that keeps crossing my mind.

I play only party and $1/2 6m; more often than not I am surrounded by 5 players with vpips in the 50-80+ range (with a mix of aggression but IMM the important thing is they're in lots of pots). Obviously these are the guys you would like at your table but my question is, is it too many?

Somewhere in sshe/hepfap a point is made that the reason real loose players mostly lose in ring is because of the combination of players which aren't as loose keeping the really loose player(s) somewhat in check. Is it likely a/the corrollary is also true? Too many loose players keeps a single tight(er) player in check?
