You need to practice playing in very loose games, which are very, very, VERY common in B&M settings. Play at some of the free play money tables online and that will give you a pretty good feel of what alot of B&M games are like sometimes. People play at the play money tables online alot like they play in the B&M's so they can be very good practice if you don't have much experience with those types of games. If 7 or 8 people are seeing the flop and going to the turn and river with their hands, your top pair top kicker hand is going to lose almost all the time.
