    This was the unusual part. You were running extremely hot during those first 10 tourneys and didn't realize it. Everything else you wrote was the normal part. They don't fold on Carbon, so you're going to take suckout after suckout after suckout when you're running bad. Remember the good ole' days when this type of bad run didn't used to happen to you? That's because people were sensible and folded bad hands...nowadays, it's so hard to win that most people have given up trying so they just play shit hands just for the hell of it and it makes a bad run worse than it should be. If you want to swing back to a good run again, you might have to wait 200 - 300 - maybe even 1,000 tournaments for your luck to change again. Online it takes about 2,000 tourneys just to determine whether you're a good player or not because that's how long variance takes to iron itself out.

    Agreed ! 10 tourneys or a few months of play is nothing when it comes to determining if your a profitable player or not in online poker.
    I hesitate to say its impossible for a online poker site to be fixing the game b/c so many have been ousted for hosting cheating in the past and think many more will be discovered in the future.
    Get at least a few hundred tourneys in your belt and review your hand histories. You can always try another site

    $25 is not enough when playing MTT's. you really need more $$ than that to afford the variance of tournament poker. Players who deposit $$ have a better opportunity of winning than those who don't simply because they can play in more tournaments. When you don't have any $$, you're stuck playing PO freerolls which only run 4 times a day so if variance is not by your side then GG. This is why you think carbon favors players who make deposits.
