Escape velocity

An escape velocity win in a poker tournament is when you min cash with virtually no chips - just enough to fold your way into the money.

This is an excerpt from my October 19, 2020 post. Last night, I had another escape velocity win. Even though they're min cashes, escape velocity wins are immensely satisfying; you feel like you've pulled a fast one on the poker gods :-)
