Best. Comeback. Ever

Twenty minutes into a 45-person, $11 SNG on Sunday night, I had 190 chips.

An hour later, I had 67,500.

Quite a comeback. First place was $171. That pushed my bankroll to a new record. In fact, if I hadn't transferred $10 to a friend to get him started online, my bankroll would be above $1,500 for the first time.

I will post the hand that started my comeback from the dead as soon as I can pull it out of the archives, but check out the best hand I've ever had — first one of these ever — right here:

Stacks:
UTG with 4048
UTG+1 with 905
MP1 with 2205
MP2 with 8631
CO with 1815
BTN with 3328
SB with 4615
BB with 3838

Blinds: 100-200
Site: Full Tilt Poker
Dealt to MP2:Q♠ K♠

Preflop:
3 players fold.
Hero raises to 400
3 players fold.
BB calls [200]
Potsize: 900

Can't remember why I min-raised. That's really strange of me. I never do that. There was a guy who would play any two cards and was really aggressive post-flop. If he was the big blind, I might have been trying to get heads up with him without building too big of a pot preflop. But I really can't remember.

Flop:
8♦ 10♠ J♠
BB checks
Hero bets [400]
BB calls [400]
Potsize: 1700

I think an open-ended flush draw with one out to the royal flush is probably a hand I should push hard. But it gets even better …

Turn:
A♠
BB checks
Hero checks
Potsize: 1700

No sense in betting. Although checking is probably suspicious.

River:
K♦
BB checks
Hero bets [600]
1 players fold.

Probably should have bet the turn. The king on the river might have killed my action, even if villain had two pair or a set.

Don't know. Maybe I could have played this better. Never had a royal flush before. I'll try to do better next time.

Current bankroll: $1,494
