This sounds like the sort of games that are standard in UK pubs...
For the love of god, next time just shove all-in: you'll still get 6 callers (who you absolutely crush) and they may well bluff each other off dry side-pots on the flop, etc.
Also, if you win your early all-ins, then you'll build a nice tight image that makes them think you're only shoving with premium hands and by the time it comes round to 3-handed and/or HU; they'll be insta-folding their 3/4BB stacks against your "any two card" shoves!
If you follow this simple advice then you can easily maintain 100% (or more) ROI...
