Hard to say without a lot more details, but perhaps it's flooded.

I think the repeated attempts to start it may have flooded the engine. Do a search on "unflooding procedure" and you'll find alot of threads on how to unflood it. You can take out a spark plug first to see if it is drenched with fuel. If they are remove all of them and clean them thoroughly and let them dry and proceed with the unflooding procedure. More info is needed to help you but I would say check the spark plugs first to see if they are drenched in fuel.

If it was flooded wouldnt it not start at all, I may be wrong.
