This is the hand that put me ITM. I think I only saw two flops. Incredible.

I think twice in about 3k sngs. It is so satisfying.

I nearly did last night, but flopped a flush from the BB on the bubble. Frustrating to not get any playable cards- I think q10s or 89s were my "best" starting hands, but ultimately satisfying to know that 7 other people couldnt avoid shooting themselves in their collective feet.

I've placed several times on stars, even 2nd by just sitting out the entire time and never playing a hand.

Yeah I've been four-tabling and not really paying attention to one of them, just kept folding. Anyway, I checked back after about forty minutes to discover that there were only three people left. Sweet.

If by "without ever winning a hand" you mean "......a showdown," then yes, plenty of times.

I never got to a showdown. I saw two flops and folded both of them.

I made it ITM yesterday in a tourney where I only VP$IP'd one hand, and folded it on the flop (whiffed AK multiway). However, I proceeded to win 15-20 hands after it went 3-handed and won the whole thing. :P
