Bad start to a bad session!

[Second Toughest]

Just sat down and this was my first hand. Afraid I didn't have any reads and no stats. Felt a bit cocky before the hand though (clearly a bad sign).

Put me on tilt for a good half hour. Think I should have called down for the sake of my sanity!

Please advise how I should have played.

Thanks
