20k the hard way....we started with 20k stack, i was down to about 11k after losing a big pot with  QhQd had to lay it down on the turn.... then i got in a pot with  9s9c in a limped pot and lost some chips to a straight on a 7 high board.... i recovered my stack by calling a pre flop raise with  3d5d the flop came  Ad5h5s i bet and got called.... turn  7d  i bet and got called river  10d and got paid off with a 3k bet....
