I started playing at Party about a year ago. I learned a lot and cleaned up at low limits ($3/6 and $1/2 NL). I swear online poker has gotten tougher now. Just can't win like I used to. Am I the only one?

i think the players are just a little better than a year ago, when i started. however, the games are still very beatable. i count 100 mistakes my opponents make every night. maybe a year ago, it would have been 110? anyways, you could have started on a crazy hot streak, which cooled down recently.

It's been easier - HOWEVER - I have gone in streaks where I can not win and it SEEMS harder. flops are way looser then the summer. Just keep plugging away.

Live or online, things always seem tougher when you are not getting cards, not hitting, missing, or getting beat up the wazoo.

Likewise, there are days where 90 percent of your pre-flop hands smack the board, you get paid off royally, you hit, and you do the a$$ jamming instead.

I think that the opposition is continually getting worse. I've had a terrible October (up $20 after 8000 hands), and every night for the past week have lost $300-$400 on the river to 2-, 3- and 4-outers. It happens. The cards will come around eventually.
