Amazing how you can draw crap cards like that one time, then the next you get pocket rockets in the first hand.
I had a similar experience and placed at about the same place you did. The terrible cards keep you from busting out early, but they leave you vunerable later on when your stack can’t withstand the rising blinds and the massive stacks others have accumulated.

Whiner! I see at least four examples of suited (quasi-)connectors, you card rack. Can’t believe you couldn’t get somethin’ goin’…
I jest! Better luck next time. See ya in this evening’s MATH!..
