5 man SNG, 5 guys left. I'm on the button with Q8s and limp in. Flop is KQ8, a short stack goes all in, I flat call and another guy does. Next card off is another 8, full house for me. Nice. Other guy goes all in... easy call... leaves me with about 50 chips. There hands are K6 and K10. Hehehe, only one more king in the deck boys. Well, it obviously falls. 2% to win? Not a problem.
There is a good part, though. All 5 players still left, and top 3 getting paid. (3rd gets buy in back, 2nd gets a bit more than the buy in, 1st takes home about 2.5 buy ins).
I have A3 on the button, one limper, I call all in. A3 not lookin to good against 4 opponents. But an ace falls on the flop... looking good. Until.... there's a raising war.... uh oh. No more help for me, the board doesn't pair, my kicker is in effect. They turn over.... 2nd and 3rd pair! mwa hahaha I quad up.
But, I only have 200 with the BB at 50, so I'm still in trouble. Here's the funny part. I don't play another hand, and manage to get heads up with the chip leader. These other retards were calling all ins against this guys sets and top two pairs. When it got heads up, I had about 70 chips and he had 3930. I told him thanks for knocking everyone out and getting me some money. First heads up hand I go all in with 72s and catch a flush against his pocket tens. Next hand, AT wins with high card. I have almost 300. I fold a SB, then go all in with pocket jacks. He calls me with Q2 and turns a Q to beat me. If I won that hand, I guarantee I could have made my best comeback ever. Fun stuff.
