Sounds good. I dno bout limpin JJ, but its debatable, as is TT, TT moreso obviously.

The main thing in games like this is not to let your standards go to absolute crap, cause the way to beat games like this is to beat the mizors at thier own game. This requires you to play somewhat similarly to how they play, but do it better. Obviously theres a million things that go into 'playing beter' than them, things like not playing drawing hands OOP, not peeling in bad spots or bad positions, etc. (basically shit i shouldnt have to talk about since presumably you already know)

But also, make sure you stick to your own guidelines about your starding hands. For example, i wouldnt play like [Js] [6s], even if your on the btn and like six people limp to you. I also woulndt play like [Tc] [8d] in that spot either. When your playing in a game full of mizors like this, theres a really major tendency to play too many hands because you see all sorts of retarded crap winning pots, and before you know it, your limpin UTG with 45s, and in MP with 67o figuring that a million people will prolly limp in behind you anyway, and calling raises with K8s because you figure that 50 people will call after you anyways. This is not solid poker, it will result in a ton of variance, and theres a good chance you will end up bleeding back more doing this than you make doing it. Of course you could always run good, and win twelve racks playing like that in a game like your describing, but when you play too too loose in this sorta game, you're leaving way too much to luck. Also, in a limit as low as this, (im assuming you mean a 5/10 game not 5/10 blinds, which would make it a 10/20 game actually), the rake has to be considered, and the looser you play, the more your losing to the rake...

In any case your starting hand list sounds pretty standard for a 'good' player in a game like this, if you stick to it and weather the beats, (and of course make the necessary annoying-as-hell laydowns), it should be almost impossible to lose in a game like this.
