Default A chip and a chair (warning: low content)

Just came back from down to 75 chips on level 1 at Stars to win a 30+3. The most satisfying part was nailing on the bubble the guy who knocked me down to 75 chips in the first place by calling my kk all-in with a-7o. Mostly luck, of course, as I won about 4 coin-flips in a row. But still, in the words of my hero, Winston Churchill, "Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, give up."

-S.

I can't remember all the details, but I was once outchipped 27-1 (that I remember) with five players left at a SNG with the blinds at 100/200 ... and came back to win.

The critical hand was having the action folded to me in the BB about 2 hands into my "run" ... and I was holding 52o or something like that.

This thread wins. Nice comebacks all, though.

I was down to 30 chips in the second hand of a SNG once. Ended up personally knocking out 4 and beating on the rest until I took first. I somehow managed to survive as a huge underdog going all in and getting called 7 times and surviving.

To be fair, my play was pretty much:
1st hand allin, won blinds. 2nd hand all in, lost. followed by a lot of all ins after that.
