It happens, a lot. Believe me, I too couldn't believe all the bad beats. But if you stick with it and have good bankroll management, you'll find a time when everything seems to be going your way too. All the sites dish the same amount of ridiculous bad beats to me. It's all just poker. Playing on a different site doesn't change it, but it might change you. Maybe the interface calms you down more, and you don't tilt as much, or maybe bigger sites have games you like better, or better blind structure. One thing I don't like about merge is that I impulse join games that I really am not comfortable playing, but I am just impatient. That includes joining games for like a third of my bankroll because I was too lazy to wait for the appropriate one to fill up. I play the same, play with the best usually, and get bad beaten. I don't deposit, so when I go broke, I don't stress that much about it.
