Nope unfortunately with more hands come more suckouts and bad beats. We always have to remind ourselves that online, you will see many MANY more hands than you'd ever see in the same time period playing live.

You ever hear the saying, "More money, more problems?"

Well, in this case, it's "More hands, more problems."

Just hang in there, and adjust to the changes gradually. Everyone has to when getting used to the online scene.

Best wishes and good luck!

Lady has it nailed. Online you see far more many hands than you do live, thus more chances of a suckout. Also, more chances for your hands to hold up and get paid.

Throw in the fact you can play multiple tables online and the chances of everything and anything happening increases.

it's mostly cause no one ever folds.
