lesson learned from today

Never ever give up hope EVEN WHEN you've very short stacks

in the early period of DTD3 my chip stack went down to 5BB but i soon got myself about 20BB thanks to a double up with K9s followed by a few steals then another double up with 88.

I might have needed to get the stack increased but i didn't have to rush it too quickly, the same cannot be said about my second occassion of getting a very short stack, now i had less that 2bb meaning a gamble was needed I had the chance to go all in with Q2o, J2o or J3o but decided to wait in hope of getting a connector or suited hand.

The suited hand wa what I got and when all in i made a triple up

My chips continued to double  up thanks to some all in where i was favourite and i was now looking down at the hope of getting past the bubble and did so. My lesson from today never ever give up hope even  when getting shock stack
