I tried to make a couple of moves but

was nailed each time and,with the blinds going up as quick as they do in relation to your starting stack,if you don't hit anything then you die a slow and painful death.
It happens sometimes.
Played a cash game about an hour later and cards were coming in left and right and I raked in just over $100 in just under an hour of .25/.50. Crazy.
Poker can be a fickle game at times.
