How to lose $12 in a single hand at the .50/1 tables

Wasn't sure if it were possible, but there you have it.

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 7c, Qc.
UTG raises, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, CO calls, Hero calls, SB calls, BB 3-bets, UTG caps, MP1 calls, CO calls, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (24 SB) Js, 7d, Qs (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets, MP1 raises, CO calls, Hero 3-bets, SB calls, BB folds, UTG caps, MP1 calls, CO calls, Hero calls, SB calls.

Turn: (22 BB) 8c (5 players)
SB checks, UTG bets, MP1 raises, CO folds, Hero 3-bets, SB calls, UTG caps, MP1 calls, Hero calls, SB calls.

River: (38 BB) Ad (4 players)
SB checks, UTG bets, MP1 calls, Hero raises, SB calls, UTG 3-bets, MP1 calls, Hero caps, SB calls, UTG calls $0.25 (All-In), MP1 calls.

Final Pot: 53.25 BB
Main Pot: 51 BB, between Hero, SB, UTG and MP1. > Pot won by UTG (51 BB).
Pot 2: 2.25 BB, between Hero, SB and MP1. > Pot won by MP1 (2.25 BB).

SB shows 9s Jd (one pair, jacks).
UTG shows 7h 7s (three of a kind, sevens).
MP1 shows 8d Qd (two pair, queens and eights).
Hero shows 7c Qc (two pair, queens and sevens).
Outcome: UTG wins 51 BB. MP1 wins 2.25 BB.

Yeah, I think I was a little on tilt. The table had had the best of me on a couple hands, and their behavior had me mystified. I think I figured that if I were going down, I'd go down big. In other words, I should have left the table and found another.
