Okay, well if you are having trouble winning at 1 table, try the beginners strategy, which is:

In a 10 player table, play only these hands before the flop and raise when it is on you:

AA
KK
QQ
JJ
10-10
9-9
8-8
7-7
AK
AQ
KQ

Other than these hands, fold everything else you see. Once you are comfortable playing after the flop, you can start playing other hands based on position or number of players in the pot. Keep in mind that pairs in a multi-way pot are actually less like to win than suited cards, so if you really want to play super-super-virgin tight, play only those AK, AQ, and KQ hands that are suited. But I warn you, if you do this you will be lucky to play more than about 5 hands an hour.
