Come back Kid
-----------------------------------
The reason I'm posting this is 3 hands into the tourney I was down to 100 chips. I managed to scratch my way back in and finished 30th. I would have went deeper but the big stack called my all-in with 3-5 os.....I had pocket Kings.....you guessed it.....two 5's on the flop!!!  My point is that even if you are down to a few hundred chips...don't go throwing them in...you can still wait and make a good tourney of it!!!

Your right spookth!  I have been in tournies that I have been down to $60 and have gone back up to top 10.   Don't give up the ghost by thinking it is all over till it's over!!

Excellent tourney spookth, and a valuable lesson for us all.
All credit to you for not giving up, which I'm sure would have been a much easier option for you at the time, than making a comeback.
I know you'll be proud of yourself,and your effort, and rightly so.
It's always a special moment when you battle back against all the odds, I bet winning the tourney would only have given you a slightly better feeling.
Oh and a fatter wallet, lol
Well done 

Alan
