Let me set the scene. In one of the $22 SNG's you're 8-tabling you pick up KK in hand #2. Standard procedure, let's get all the chips in. You find a customer who has QQ and is ready to go broke. Then, the unthinkable happens, Q on river! You are crushed. You have 15 chips left out of the 8000 in play (0.1875%). So what now? Close her down and start a new one? NO! With a lot of heart and a little luck, 1st place is not that far away! Here's the end result:
1st place - MastaOfFunk - $100 (Me)
2nd place - suumatt - $60
3rd place - SoppoSnaked - $40
In case you guys are wondering how these 15 chips made it to the bubble. Here are the key hands. (After that, it was the standard 2+2 pushbot procedure with a few 3-outer suckouts here and there)
