Are you sure you cranked the engine for 10 second? 10 seconds is way too long. Longest I've cranked is 2 seconds, which sometimes feels like 10 seconds.
In any case, assuming that your spark plugs are working, then try putting your key in the accessory position for a few seconds to get the fuel pump circulating fuel and bring the fuel rail up to pressure before starting the car.
Next thing to do is attach a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel rail and perform cold-start and hot start fuel pressure checks.
Assuming that your spark plugs are sparking (if the car runs fine, there's no problem), then it's 85% probability a fuel-related issue.
