The skin of my teeth

Last night, I made the money by the skin of my teeth. I survived two hands I had no right to survive. Sometimes, you need a little help like that :-)

This is an excerpt from my May 15, 2019 post. It applies equally well to last night's session. Nearing the money bubble, I was Caboose Boy, and folding every chance I got. Of course, it's impossible to fold when you fall in, and I fell in not once but twice. Mirabile dictu, I was lucky enough to win one and chop the pot on the other. That was just enough to allow me to survive until the money bubble burst.
