> If the combos are sequential and the Elf has to commit to a certain number of life before the Goblin commits to a certain number of damage, then the Goblin would win.

I agree that in formal tournaments this would happen, but the comment I was responding to was about a "casual tournament." I was assuming the 1000 life was with a sorcery (e.g. infinite mana combo + stream of life). In casual play, shortcuts are only when both sides agree, so it would be a jerk move to not agree to one that benefits your opponent after your opponent has agreed to one that benefited you.
