Sounds like the engine is flooding. Waiting gives it a chance to have the fuel evaporate.

Maybe its the purge valve?

Did the check engine light come on?

try using your other ignition key and if it still plays up it can be either the immobilizer (smartra unit) or the crank position sensor. either way your nearest dealer should be able to tell if they put the car on the diagnostic computer.
