Nuthin' But a Ji Thang
![[user253757]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
After being forced out of a hand when the 
was not to his favor, a frustrated Young Ji made an unusual move during a tournament's latter stages: he simply walked away from the table.
What appeared to be the simple act of walking off a loss turned into a lengthy absence in which Ji missed five deals. Sitting on a short stack of 120,000, good for just 15 big blinds, Ji willingly sacrificed five potential chances to double up.
Upon returning to the table, Ji immediately woke up with a hand he liked, and his open to 28,000 was enough to scoop the blinds. Ji turned over the 
for a preflop monster, saying "thank you, thank you" as he dragged the pot.
One wonders if those five hands that were mucked by the dealer might have been on equal footing with this holding, but alas, both we and Ji will never know.
