I actually don't mind this situation at all... I call it "training my opponents"... I'll let them come over the top a few times and I'll fold, looking weak... they think they can push me around... then I burn their ass later and double up when I catch a real hand. (It's like giving your opponents a false read) This is a routine of mine that happens almost every session...

I think it's almost pretty standard to drop down at least 20% of your stack while you feel out the table. Either that happens, or you catch a couple of real hands right off the bat and start out running...
Lack of Discipline and Over-Confidence... The root of all poker evil.
