After checking out WanderingWinder's nice ambassador article, I remembered a pretty funny game I played a while back. It was pretty significant to me, since I remembered it after 10 months of not looking at it.
Anyway, what happens is, I spend the whole game trying to get possession, while my opponent goes for some ambassadors and a torturer. Things are looking grim as I'm down 17 points with one province in the supply on turn 14.
However, I play my possession (the one time I play it the whole game) and the hand I possess is: Province, Ambassador, Spice Merchant, Estate, Silver. I draw another province with spice merchant, and bam! 18 point swing.
I find it hysterical that my opponents obviously superior deck is beaten due to the most absurdly lucky hand I could have gotten.

Also: Excuse the not all that great play; it looks like I was around level 15 at the time of this game.

poor guy, I think he only played the ambassador once. (when he gave you an estate, which if he hadn't done, he would have won the game 33-32)
