    5 chips Angie?!! Lol. How many double-ups did he need just to afford the next round of blinds? That's absolutely amazing. There's hope for us all... ;)

    I was working on last night's show, and yes it was an amazing comeback. Looks like there's hope for Rich Orford to recover some of his Play-the-Presenter bankroll yet!

    I once registered for a MTT, went out for a few pints and forgot all about it. I got back when there were 12 players left and I had 40 chips. I doubled up just once; some players killed each other off; I sneaked into the money then fell asleep with my face on the keyboard! Woke up next morning with 8th place in the bag.

    Top class poker play!

    I once won a tourney from 300 chips (average was about 20k) but to get 4th from 5 chips is phenomenal.

    hi anjie thanks for your support the other night, it was the mentalist game of poker ive ever played in, had connection problems all night aswell. went all in 3 times on final table and it didnt register my bet. thanks again be lucky.

    Went down to 25 chips when 3-handed in a scary sit'n'go, blinds were 150/300 at the time if I remember correctly. Went all-in and won 9 consecutive hands, ended up winning it. That's my best.

    Proof that the 'Chip & a Chair' Philosophy can still ring true!
