I get between 6-9 ppl at my games, every other week. We typically have 3 $20 T2000 tournaments. A few times we've had pot limit dealers choice cash games which were met with indifference to resistance. And actually to outright hosility whenever I'd call Omaha/8.
As speakeasy mentions, everyone prefers tournaments due to the set buy-in and eliminating players/crowning a champion. Plus it's what's on TV. I also keep track of everyone's standings, so that added competition level exites people too.
I'm trying again to start having some cash games as well though. Just yesterday we had a 1-2 limit HE kill game that was pretty fun. I'm going to try a 25¢/50¢ or 50¢/$1 NL cash game next. Everyone said they had a good time, but they all still prefer the tournaments. I like both.
