Default Share you best single day comeback story

In the midst of the hottest streak of my poker career, i got off to a horrible start yesterday down about $700 4 tabling at 5-10 6max tables at party.

A couple of hands like this got me a hige hole:

Anyway i'm gonna post every single bad beat that I incurred, no one wants to read that. The first two were pretty crappy, the last one just bad luck. But anyway, i kept playing solid poker, and by the end of the day i dug myself out of a $700 hole and ended up $200. Anyone else have a cool comeback story they would like to share?

I was at a party and they had a lot of Cocktail Shrimp, which is my favorite food outside of bratwurst and lil debbie snackcakes. So I ate my fair share. This guy I work with, in front of the whole party, said "Hey Matty!, "The ocean called and they're running out of shrimp."

Anyways, I looked him right in the eyes and said "The jerk store called, they're running out of you!"

Burn.

yeah, I should say that this post made me feel like I was really falling down on the job of making off-topic cathartically wierd posts in shitty threads.

Damnit. I have competition.

that wasn't off-topic dude... that's an awesome comeback. and i'm sure he said the whole thing in a single day.

as for the original poster, i made $1900 at $5/$10 6 max yesterday and $300 at $3/$6. i lost a few bucks the day before so it counts.

I am an amatuer baseball umpire among other things. One night I ate a whole cheesecake (this is back in the day when I was a pothead). The next morning I had to go umpire an adult league double-header about a hundred miles away. I woke up with the worst diahrea that I had ever had in my life. I still went out there to do my games, sometimes running out to the porto-potty between innings, but at the end of the day, my polyester slacks were still clean.
