My Greatest Comeback Ever, Please Share Yours!

[grandgnu]

Single-table sit n' go on Empire. Start with 800 chips. Early on I give up most of my chips during three-way action when I flop an open-ended straight draw.

I'm left with 75 (that's SEVENTY-FIVE) measly chips left. I go on to win the whole thing, I kid you not. I just made the right stands at the right times. And when my chip stack was healthy again played some amazing poker.

Heads-up we tossed around the chip lead numerous times, but eventually I took it back with 5/5 vs. his 9/10 (all-in pre-flop and I snagged a set, he hit his pair on the river) Then I took him down with Q/7 vs. his J/4.

Going from 75 chips to 8,000 was freaking amazing, I've never staged a comeback like that. Please feel free to share your greatest comeback stories, there HAS to be someone who's done it with 50 chips, or even 30! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Yesterday (22) my QQ lost to 99 in Level 1 and left me with 15 chips. I came back and got in second.

Played a $30+3... got to HE.

Even chip stacks, we got all in, I lost. I had 30 chips left. 7770 to 30 chip lead, but I won like 7 straight all-ins, got to even stacks, and he was too terrified to play against me (since luck was seemingly on my side).

I win!

My best was from 10 chips. Was in a 22 on party. Cant remember if it was KK to QQ or AA to KK but I got screwed then went on to win the next 5 hands in a row. 10-50, 50-150,150-300, 300-600, 600-1200 sounds about right. And yes I came back to win it.

My bro played a disgusting game yesterday though. Was a 22 on party. He doubled up first hand of the tourny knocking someone out and after that it was over. NO one in the tourny ever broke 1k all the way down till it was heads up with 6800 to 800 to 300. First he took out the 800 then the 300. I think he MIGHT of lost 1 hand the whole tournament. Never seen a tourny dominated like that.

We see one of these 'greatest comeback' things all the time. I've come back from 15 chips on a full table at level 2 to win, what diff does it make? Nobody really wants to hear about it.

No one forced you to visit this thread. If you don't like these posts, don't read them and don't post in them and bump them to the top, geesh, how hard is that?

Your posting here (for you) is -EV. And there are obviously "some" people interested in these.

First off Congrats! Comebacks like that are totally energizing.

I have two great comebacks:


1. down to 40 chips in level 1 to take 1st place

2. down to 20 chips in level 1 to take 3rd place
