my last win came 2 weeks ago.
had 1,500 in chips left, hit AK shoved all in straight away, and 4 callers, and hit a flush with the Ace. quadripled up too about 6,000
two hands later was big blind at 4K, guy shoved all in with AJ after losing a big pot, got dealt 4,5 diamonds. Wasn't going to allow him steal my blind, so called him.
Flop came down as 7,4,K no flush draw, turn card he his Ace, then I hit another 4 on the river too hit trips, up to 14K in chips
after the break, 1st hand Pocket kings, shoved all in again and no-one called, took the blinds! from their on won another couple of hands and got the final table with 83,500 in chips.
Your Biggest comeback win.

Re: Your Biggest comeback win.
my best comeback was from 5 to win a tourney, cashed over us1K. 6 players left on the final table, just got stacked for all my chips bar 5 and just kept tripling, doubling up. 1000 player tourney, so there was like 1.5mil in chips in play, so you can imagine the run i had to comeback. the table was like WTF at that stage

shat it in, just waited for everyone else too knock each other out,
then called the remaining player with J 6 off, and hit J 6 on the flop, taking most of their chips in the process.

Re: Your Biggest comeback win.
My biggest come back in an NPL/888pl tourny was one night about 6 months back at the Lousiana Tavern.
I had been crippled and was down to my last 500 chips with blinds starting to go through the roof.
Blinds had at 500/1000 for a bit and I was hanging on folding everything, suddenly 3 or 4 players are knocked out and we make a final table.
Of course in order to keep up with the blinds, I'm chipped up to 1k, nice doubled up with out playing a hand.
I draw a late position and manage to fold a heap of hands, watching as players get knocked out left right and centre.
A few hands go by and the blinds go up again, once again my 1k is chipped up with out playing a hand.
I managed to get a run of cards then, rockets AK, you name it I had and they all held up, managed to finished second, couldn't quite pull the trigger for the win.
