Late starts lead to early finishes

Last Thursday night, I started playing so late that I didn't have time to wait for an MTT-R NLHE tournament. Instead, I jumped into a MTT NLHE whose late registration period was almost over. I hit the rail just 9 hands later. Undeterred, I jumped into another MTT NLHE, and hit the rail just 11 hands after that. My average loss per hand on the night was therefore a whopping $5,000, which comes in second on my all time worst list for MTT NLHEs. Tonight, it's back to MTT-R NLHE.
