Worst Blown Lead Ever Heads Up?

TomCollins · #1 06-20-2005, 02:12 PM

Not a bad beat post, just wondering if you have seen worse.

Happened about a month ago to me:

I am up 9900 to 100. Guy doubles up 4 straight times, then manages to win the tournament.

Anyone ever witnessed a bigger comeback heads up?

I had a guy come back from 15 chips once all the way to 3800 and then I laid a brutal suckout on him to win. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I would just push every hand until he has 3200 chips. So that means he would have to win 5 times in a row which only happens like 3% of the time (or the odds of hitting a 1 outer on the river)

I will never speak of this evil that has been inflicted upon me, but it is worse.

Not 99-1, no. But I did have a guy come back on me who had 140 chips not too long ago. Not only did he win the allins, but I was the favorite in the first three, and two of them were significant.

Wow, I can't come close to that.

Was playing in a SnG yesterday where I had 7k of the 8k chips at one point and still lost, though :-p

I was a favorite in the first 4 in a row, a coin flip in 2, and a small dog in the other 2. I lost all.

The blinds were 300/600 at this point, so he was all in blind 4 hands in a row, and managed to suck out every time. He called an all in with 85 against my AJ, doubled up with a boat, and then it was all downhill.

I think my dad played one tourament where he had maybe 50 chips at some point out of the 8k on the table. It wasn't heads up, but he managed to win it.

With 3 players left, I was once left with T5 on my BB after losing a big hand. The other two players both went all in the next hand, I won the main pot to triple up to T15 and came in 2nd.
