...like Yan Liu at the 06' Olympics; she placed 11th, and I'm pretty sure she landed six or seven triples.

Yan Liu landed six triples in her LP in Torino:
3Lz+2T
3F
3Lo+3Sa SEQ
3T
3T+2T
While she did get bonus points for completing the last two (and the 2A) after the halfway mark, she repeated the two easiest triples, received the 80% sequence penalty on the 3/3 sequence -- base score 7.6, just .3 more than 3Lz+2T -- and she received +GOE on only one, the final 3Sa. Altogether, she lost -1.67 on her jumps.
She ended in 11th place in the LP. In my opinion, she should have been in 10th, above Sokolova, who finished .2 above her. Although Liu is on the slow side, her musicality and precision put her far above Sokolova's sloppy effort in my opinion, and Sokolova received her typically inflated PCS, averaging about 6.25.
