i agree with you smmoth, i think you're totally right.. when i was started playing on
titan, i couldn't lose in first 5-6 days.. and i played like every begginer, calling every hand and every raise with any suited card.. i was moving on gutshots, catching runner-runner flushes.. i almost won 2000$ jackpot on dirty dozen with the worst play in the world (but almost.. i finished 3rd or 4th in 4th tourney).. now i can't finish in the money (i can't even think to win one Dirty Dozen) because i'm always sucked by a player who plays my style when i was beggining
(for example, my 13bb raise with KK called by 48 suited, then calling allin with 4 on board giving him trips or two pairs till the river)... of course, i lost all my bankroll later, and started from zero again - but in my mind because of that wins i was "really good poker player"..
my advice is, when you build bankroll and learn something about poker, move to higher buy-in tourneys.. (on those with 1 or 2$ buy-ins you would be always outdrawn)
