Maybe you can blame "Murphy's Law" but even that is pushing it. Odd are statistics which will generally hold true after you've gone through like 2 million iterations.

Couple things you need to remember:

The skills displayed by your opponents will be directly proportional to the buy in.

The sites need the fish to play... esprcially in free rolls and low limit games.

Well you can't just shove the blame into the online aspect. If that was the case then people wouldn't divest their life's savings(like they do, all the time) on the felt.

yeah the ones who put their life savings into this sht is crazy, no way in hell..poker is hard and easy yet complicated, skill players are one thing but youhave to have luck as well to win online poker big games..gl though

Not sure grinding a living at poker would be fun. I enjoy playing but more on weekends, for recreation. I do enjoy live play but it not easy the in how it is done. Normally setting aside 10 to 16 hours to play for a cash table session. If I don't have the time or mindset then it is big waste of my time.

Doing it everyday or making a living forces you to approach it differently to be successful. Not sure I want that at this present time.
