Just wanted to know what kind of comebacks people have pulled off? I was down to 0.3BB in a 45 person Sng with 3 people left and I came back to win (880 chips, 3000/1500/150). Lets just say the guy that came 2nd wasn't too happy.

The first couple of hands that got me going.

Mine was only HU in a 150 player tourney where the chip leader was on an absurd roll and the chips were about 2.2mil-150K and I managed to come back and beat her as her luck finally ran out.
