Question by : Fireplace - any tips on reducing smoke coming in instead of going out?

im renting a house with a fireplace, ive used it once but had alot of smoke coming in, was the fire not hot enough to assist in the smoke rising? is some smoke coming in normal? any tips or tricks ?
oh before someone asks, yes the damper in the chimney was open when I used it.

was the flu open? if so open a window on the opposite side of the room just a little bit. it will help get a draft going.
