Default Online poker

Does anyone else feel like they get sucked out per hand alot more often when playing online? I play a loose pre-flop poker(my post flop poker is very strong), tend to play on fulltilt, i have played for about 6 months and when i am 80+% to win in a hand i tend to lose them about half the time.
I have had 2 horrible bad beats on fulltilt recently, one was in a 3rd round ME freeroll( managed to win a 630 FR and make top 9 outa 3200 in round 2), about 50 people left. I was UTG with 7-8 spades, i was above avg stacked at the table(about 11k), blinds were 100-200 and avg stack was 7500. I raised to 500 ( I had been raisin alot pree-flop, people like to see flops too much and it is nice to thin down field). I had 3 callers, one at UTG+2 and sb and bb both called.

Flop-9s-10s-Js
Good thing it was online.... could barely contain myself.

sb-check
bb-check
me- bet 400
utg+2, sb, bb- call

turn- Qs

I dislike that alot, i hate it actually, we all check it.

River- Ks

I start laughin, and keep laughin, and cussin.

sb-check
bb-check
me-check
utg+2- raise all in

sb-call
bb-call

me- Without hesitation i fold, i dont know why, probably because i was so pissed off, either way....

UTG+ 2 wins pot of about 23k with royal flush...

sb had pock 10's, bb had pock J's, utg+2 had As-4s... So it goes... I busted next hand to the guy with royal, had pocket J's to his K's. oops.


Other hand was at a 1$-2$ NLHE 7 handed, i sitdown at table with 100$, and pick up pocket aces first hand. Im UTG+4, utg1-3 all call, i raise to 15$, sb and bb who both call, folds to utg+3 who pushes all in( he had 135 and had apparently just lost 95$ to a suckout on riv, his holdings were Qs-Qh), I insta call and dont want action, sb and bb both fold.

Flop-Ah-As-Jh
I start dancin and laughin.
turn-10h
Dosn't faze me.
river- Kh

So it goes. Runner runner royal, gee wiz FT, thanks alot. My bank at the start of the hand was 145 total, i had freerolled it and then played cash games(1.25 sng's) in about 2 weeks.

2 hands dosn't mean much, but those are just the ones i remember the most. My problems tend to come from people(when in tourneys) who i push all in on the turn(usually with good pairs, 2p's, sets, straights, ect) and they usually call without proper odds and catch their 8 outers and 11 outers, anyone have the same [censored] happen constantly to them too?

Thanks, i stopped playin online about 2 months ago due to pc failure, didn't hurry with gettin a new one as i was pissed of at online poker(due to fact i had lost all cash on the site i had) plus i just recently turned 18, i porlly wont post cash on any online sites yet, but FT has an easy way to freeroll to cash, i'll do that again( if i dont get sucked out too much and leave the site entirely) and post my winnings (if that is i get any).

Anyone know of other sites where it is fairly easy to move from FP to money games without needing to send money to the site?(On Fulltilt there are tourneys at 8pm(their time) that cost about 500k in free chips, first place is 5$, 2nd is 4$, 3rd is 3$, and 4th-18th all get 2$, there tend to be 30-50 people in the tourneys (almost have get money) so it is very easy to start a micro roll on the site and move it up. any other sites do this?
