Game Altering Hands
Randal FTW:
I think we should have a thread for hands that totally alter the rest of the game. Its fun to see the sick chains people pull off that maybe dont deserve their own thread. Mods if you feel like this thread is what the whole forum is for then feel free to lock it up!
So maybe the hand ends the game or maybe its a soul crushing blow to your opponent (or you). Maybe its a bonehead move that cripples you when you should have won. Maybe you just pulled off the sickest KC+Bridge combo ever.
Whether you wanna whine/brag/make fun of yourself lets post some hands that define the rest of the game (or ends it). :)
I offer two: a solid tournament draw (im willing to bet someone has pulled all the treasures) and one ridiculous ending.

I once opened my turn by playing 5 Menageries in a row. All were successful. On the fifth play, I revealed a 12-card hand, all unique cards. No log though, this was a face-to-face game.

@randal:
Do I see it right that you would have won if you bought a curse the last turn?

Yes, either that (for the highest score) or trash the duchy instead of the gold.

I don't think the game would have ended in that case.
