Worst Ever HU Loss?

Just lost the heads up for a small MTT after getting to HU with 84,722 chips to my opponents 3,277, so a 26 to 1 chip lead.

That takes some doing! Had all in pre pots of Q7 v 82, A4 v KQ, AK v K4 (44x flop!) and others for the win.

Hand below is the first one of my demise, just to show the chip stacks.

Anyone lost heads up with a bigger lead?

    Is @waller02 your HU coach?

    Is the discord HU league table frozen for anyone else?

    For the benefit of @misterpj - or Blunder Jackson as he seems to prefer these days - "heads up" means when there are just 2 players.

    That’s pretty grim Paul @Enut , well played getting to that stage though., I’ve no recollection of losing when that far ahead. ( Prob won from that far behind though 😉)

    Last 2 hands posted by Mr.PJ are fist pump shoves, dunno what hands are waited for with those stacks to blinds..

    Thanks @tomgoodun, I had felt quite pleased with my play until the HU outcome. I had been chipleader from about 3 tables out and took 8 bounties out of 44 players, including cracking AA with AJ AIP, which makes a change.

    It appears that coming back from a 26:1 chips disadvantgage is actually quite easy, just win 4 all ins in a row and you're chip leader, win 5 and you've won it. Simples. I blame it on my opponent, when we got HU he typed in chat something along the lines of 'well I've got no chance here, have I! The poker Gods were obviously watching and decided to have a laugh.
