I play NL10 at FullTilt and I'm am on a large downswing. I can't put my finger on what it is. An issue I'm having right now is that I seem to get called by nearly everyone. I make all my raises at least 5X the BB. Ex....

This seems to be happening constantly. What do I do here? Just keep doing what I'm doing. I have tried different experiments such as keeping pots small pre-flop and trying to beat them post-flop but all strategy would tell me this is not good poker.
Another issue is constant check-raising. It seems that NL10 players are ADDICTED to check-raising EVERY chance they get. (Aside from the river as no NL10 players use the river check-raise) All strategy posts on 2+2 would tell you to hammer down C-betting and put them to decisions but it seems none of them ever believe me.
Does anyone else have these same problems at NL10?
If anyone has any tips they find useful for this low of a level they would be greatly appreciated.
