Default A few questions on live play in Atlantic City

I have zero experience playing B&M poker, so I had a few basic questions. I don't wanna ask a pit boss or dealer there and look suspicious as I am underage, don't wanna draw any attention to myself.

[EDIT: Ok, I've read the newbie guide, it was very helpful. However, some of my questions were left unanswered:]

1. How long does one have to wait to get a seat in the Taj? This will probably depend on the day and time, but on average?

2. Do the dealers announce the pot size on their own or perhaps when asked? I'm not accustomed to counting the pot by myself, so I should get ready for that. I figure I'd keep better track of the bets going in, since the pot won't exactly be neatly organized in the middle.

3. I was told in my other thread that 0.5/1 doesn't exist in AC, so which games are the most accessible as a small stakes NL player? How is the competition in 1/2? I play 0.5/1 and 1/2 at Party, will live play be very different?

5. Any other code or conduct or etiquette I should be aware of? Basically I just don't want to make an ass out of myself, especially at the table with everyone watching. Damn, I feel nervous already.

Thanks guys.
