Here begins a tale of joy and comedy painted in hand histories.
Like any good movie, it starts with a slight difficulty....

Awesome, Lori. The only NL MTT I've ever won, I had to come back from T30 (that's right, THIRTY) in the second hour. I don't know how I went from 30 to 3,000,000 chips in roughly 4 or 5 hours, but I was happy to collect my share of the prize pool when all was said and done.
