Default first shot ever at 5/10 NL (why not to shortstack)

im obviously chasing my $100 loss at 1/2, but the saw flop% looked good and when i observed the table i saw Villain cold call 100 preflop with a hand that couldn't beat King high at showdown, so with like 1.9k in my account i figured the smart thing to do was buy in full, i was playing pretty decent but not getting much action when this beauty occurred
