Can you win at online poker sites?

I have been playing poker since I was 12. My father a poker player and we played for fun at home. Last 4 years I have been playing texas holdem poker NL with friends several times a week. Also I go to Atlantic City and play. I think I am a good player.

I signed up for carbon poker and fulltilt and playing thier freerolls and play money and finding out the bad beats are incredible. I know bad beats happen I experienced many in my playing. But online the bad beats number many against me I would say realistically 95%
so far against me. Calling my raises with nothing and catching winning hands on river, or calling needing 2 runners to win, or calling with just A high, or like my recent bad beat AA allin with over 15,000 and he calls puting his tourny life on the limb with his 12,ooo odd chips with 72 off suit and makes fullhouse.

I am afraid to put money in online poker sites. they do not act anything like real live poker.

I like to know if I am paranoid or just missing something????
