Last evening I play freerol and the same time 3 Dons. In freerol was final table, and left only 2 players. I was chip leader. I go all in with 77 the oponent call with Qx flop QQQxx. After this I was chep leader yet and next hand I have Ax, i go All in again he cal me with Jx on the flop Jxx and he became the chip leader and final he won and I take the second place. The interesting thing that a few min later after this in 1 of dons I left with 70 chips, blinds 200/100. I dont know how I dont TILT but finaly I rebuild stack and was in paid places. So all is posible in poker a little luck and good play.

Posted by pmgignac: i lost it and got back 50 chips from the pot almost tilt but took a deep breathe and finished in second place in that sng so guess nothing is impossible
This situation happens often to all sng's players and you show them that they shouldnt give up ! some just tilt and drop all in with 83 on the next hand. Its better to wait and play those 50 chips as you was shortstack, that's all : shortstack start when you go under 10 blinds and 50 chips is a shortstack situation that should be played as always

sit on final table,have the chiplead lost my first hand and got only 800 chip blinds are 750/1000 and finished like you in secound place.Win 4 hands in a roll
It was a $20 MTT and I had my AA cracked by QQ leaving me with 20 chips. Two away from the bubble. I didnt even have enough to cover the ante.
The next hand I had AK and obviously was all in. I won the hand and ended up with something like 200 chips. Next hand I had JJ so shoved and won taking my stack to about 800 chips.
I was in last place and managed to scrape into the money. I then started picking spots and withing 10 minutes had over 5000 chips. Still very short, but still in the game.
Two hours later I won the whole tournament winning $600....
