Poker takes a lot of skill online. The few tourneys I've been in, you'll see many of the same players constantly make it to the top 100 out of 30,000 players. When I play for money, I start tight and play good hands, once I build up, I'll get loose, even willing to lose a few hands so people can see I will push a bluff to the end, then pray for that good hand you can set people up with. The hard thing is you've got to bet to see cards hoping you will hit. The hardest thing for me is figuring odds in my head on the fly, but I'm getting better at it.
Most sites, you move up in class as you win money, so you can't take advantage of new players coming in.
