Awesome comeback. Somepeople just give up and think they can't comeback but I say if you still got chips you still got a chance to win.

I had a pretty gnarly comeback not too long ago I don't remember if I got my money in bad or got sucked out on, but I was sitting at two-digit chips, doubled up through a guy, and waited, waited, waited, until I eventually got my stack up high enough to take 2nd or was it 1st heh anyway some people talk about being shortstacked in a tournament I think there is more to it than that, if you get shortstacked you are in danger but you're not exactly dead you can still get lucky and catch cards or in go the way of the original poster and have the worst hand bet out the winner hands on the river which never happens to me in a tournament ussually if somebody is betting into a hand where I'm all in they are getting called by everybody at the table and my 3rd pair no kicker is drawing dead to straights flushes and fullhouses before the river even hits and sometimes I just wish I could get lucky like the OP and *DEEP BREATH*

Gah. He's got me beat, I think.

I was down to 30 chips in a $8.70 satellite to a $33 tournament with 1500 starting stack after getting my AA cracked by a fish. who stacked off TPKK. I tripled up like twice and doubled up like another 3 times to win the seat. It happens but the odds certainly are against you.

Best comeback I've ever made was in the second Daily Dollar freeroll... its a basic donkament, give donks 300 starting chips... full tilt is insane. But anyways, I didnt play at first and was blinded down to 60-80 chips as i remember it... I came back and actually cashed comfortably in it, I had about 5000 chips by the time we got past the bubble. Just kept doubling up... was nice :D
