what is a realistic showdown won % to shoot for? I figure that the number of people in the pot should be factored in as well as people at these tables seem to play pretty loose.

I hit about 65% to 75% most night on showdowns, but that's NL, I would expect limit to be a little lower.

It seems that you're running well, playing too many hands for 8-9 handed games, winning too many hands after seeing flops. Expect things to slow down.

And there are many winning players with <50% showdowns won. That's characteristic of a loose-aggressive player

Well, on the tables I play, players tend to play fairly loose and on the majority of hands there are 4-5 limpers. How should this effect my starting hands? Should I tighten up and drop a bomb on them when I get some good starting hands or loosen up and limp and beat them with post flop play?
