I am horrible at live poker. I've played at the Rio, Wynn, and Stratosphere (within walking distance of The Sky where I'm staying) and am down for the trip so far. Granted it's over only three hours, but I just feel out of my element. Maybe it's the pace (I get bored of all the folding) and maybe it's the variance - I don't know.

So ... for those of you that play live. What advice can you give me? How loose/tight should I play in general? Obviously as the stacks go deeper and the number of people in the pot continues to go up, I should loosen up, but what about opening standards?

Meh ... here is to turning it around.
