Combination of many loose players who hate to fold and high average pot size resulting in more all-in showdowns in my experience.  Even in a micro stakes game online a standard opening raise is 3BB.  In a live game a standard opening raise is often 5BB or more and that raise can get multiple callers so stacks get in much easier.
 
As for OP's question, my advice is to remember that in a live game you have to think about more than just your cards.  Maintaining a friendly atmosphere and keeping the fish happy / playing can sometimes be just as important as how you play the cards you're dealt.  You've got much less choice in the games you play in live so if you find yourself a good one you want to keep it going as long as possible.  Don't be the killjoy who sits there in sunglasses never moving and never talking and [B]definitely[/B] don't be the person that critiques other people's play.  [B]Keep the fish happy and keep them playing.[/B]
