I signed up at Virgin poker last night to try it out (sorry only UK players allowed) and since it is such a new and unknown site there arent a lot of players on and they are extremely loose. Since the only games that are populated were the limit ones i decided to have a go at them. Im much more familiar with NL ring games but I believe I can hold my own in a small stakes limit game. The problem is that these players are extremely loose and everyone (7+) limps in and almost all the pots are won with flushes and straights. So I know that I should value hands like suited connectors and PPs higher in these types of games but what other adjustments should i make? How do i beat a limit game with a bunch of calling stations? What should my starting hands be?

Id play the same starting hands. Top hands only, suited connectors with position. Basically the rule is play opposite your table. If they're crazy loose, tighten up.
Tighten up, pick up a big hand, and hammer it home. With 7+ people calling, you should be able to pick up some nice change, but it'll take longer.
Last to mention, since everyone else is limping, you can limp with marginal hands as well (I'm not talking about 72o, but Axs and things like that.), but be sure to drop them if you miss the flop. You don't want to be playing the turn at twice the price.

if it is very passive, limp Kxs+, strong Qxs, 43s+, 22+, 87o+ (from all positions)
