I remember once I was down to 10 chips with blinds at 25/50 with about 80 players left and I went onto cash in the top 10. Cant remember what my best win is from an ultra short stack is however.
There's far lower stacks people have gone to but the first (and only) time I've won the mini, I'd won a couple of chips early so was slightly up, then lost KK v QQ aipf. Left me with about 250 chips at 10/20, then obv went on a sick heater to spin back up to starting stack and onwards
my best ever come back was on a different poker network but, i was down to forced all in think the blinds was at 1-2k but anyway i came back from that to finish 3rd in the tournament to pinch a £90 prize, from thinking i was out with winning my buy in.
Was down to 1k at 1k/2k in a live £35 tourney about 10 years ago and only stayed in on the second recount and went on to win and get a brown envelope with 50, £20 notes. It was the begining of an actual live bankroll, one of my fondest poker memories still.
I had aces cracked to go down to 1.5 blinds in a live tournament, I think there was around 15 left. Ended up going on to win despite having been asked to do a deal many times on the FT when I was still the shorty. Strangely he still asked me when I had a monster stack 3 handed. lol
I was down to 2 BBs at 3000/6000 on the final table of the 5k bounty hunter last night.. the chip leader at the time had 60 BBs and i took it down.. that was also my biggest win on sky so far.
My Most memorable was the side event in Leeds at spt I was down to 1 bb going into last 30 players came back to win it with Julian in 2 nd place and bungle72 in 3rd.
In the orfie a few weeks ago, I came back from 1 bb, won 4 hands in a row, then picked up queens, some1 with 9s shoved (I had them covered by this point) knocked them out, which left me chip leader at the table, and some how managed to go onto win it.
I had nothing for 3 hours, then ran golden 5 hands in a row. Funny old game!
funniest one for me and not really a comeback as such but had a total of 5 chips left after a cooler in a dym 4 players left and next hand two big stacks both with about 4k each went all in pre with aa and kk result finished 3rd I think it was a 20 quid dym not a 30p one so couldn't believe it

I was down to 1.1 BB in a tourn last night, spun it right back up to a commanding position, then bubbled unnecessarily A4 vs KK blind on blind.
