Why can't I win at Poker Online ??

[AJ]

Not sure where I'm going with this, it's a bit of a whinge, and a bit of a cry for help, I've got a problem. I think I'm a decent poker player, perhaps even slightly better than average. My live games are showing a good consistant profit, $1,700 in the last 3 months, I won the PL virgin freeroll a few months back for a $1,495 profit, my live itm rate is 75% with average fields of around 30 players. So here's my problem, why can't I win at cheapish online STT's ?? I've been playing 6 or 9 players games, most $5+0.50 games. I'm not getting murdered by any means, but in my last 200 games, I'm down by $100, i.e. exactly what I've paid in rake. Now my good friends at Paddy Power have given me all this back, as part of the signup promotion, so no money lost. Do I have an ego issue here, I think I should be crushing these games and showing a good profit. Are my expectations unreasonable ? I've been wondering should I give up tounrneys and play cash games, or perhaps limit instead. I try and play the same game on and offline, but it's just tanking online. I know without a long term hand history you can't give me game advice, just looking for any wisdom or suggestions. I've been playing on tribeca, which isn't supported by Poker Tracker for tournement play, perhaps I should switch networks, install PT and then build up a hand history and show where I'm going wrong.

Re: Why can't I win at Poker Online ?? i've played on tribeca a long time, most of the tourny mistakes i make are from giving my opponents too much credit, rather than too little. maybe you are underplaying some hands against some opponents that you are actually ahead on? also, tribeca stt blind levels, are fast. real fast. try boss stt's. they are more appropriate possibly?
