congrats dude! it's certainly an impressive come back and win. I do this also happens, but more often that I almost already won almost everything, and then there came a relaxation and I started playing recklessly and madly ...... and all ended with my defeat. in general it I learned never to relax until he won.

Lazarus! Now there is a to / name that I haven't heard for a while. I like that term and it definitely fits Monsieur PINOTTE in this situation. Well done Monsieur PINOTTE for this win given the situation that you found yourself in. The other guy must be feeling pretty sick at the end. Good luck seems to be following you at the moment.

This truly was a great comeback and i bet the other guy must be kicking himself for losing such a big lead. It only take a couple of double ups and you are right back in it heads up and there is always hope.

Gratz for this nice come back in this sng! it was unbelievable sometimes with which kind of cards and all in situations it was possible to come back in a game. But with the last chips it was only possible to go all in...
Good fellow. You have shown a master class and for all a lesson that it is possible and to win a tournament from 85 counters. At me was somehow, from 65 counters it was untwisted and then there has passed the satellite. And already in the main tournament I have won $150.

I have done this only once so far, way back, i was so lucky. But the other way around it has happened more than once. So nerve racking. You are just one hand away from winning and you end up losing.
