Return of the Ji

After discovering the gigantic stack of Young Ji in the Brasilia Room's Bronze section, we stuck around to catch the animated player take down yet another pot while bullying his unsuspecting foes into submission. While we know that Ji is quite the sharp, especially after watching him make a deep run in Event #22 ($1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha), where he finished in 11th place, the seniors at his table have no idea who they are dealing with. Although he may appear to be somewhat of an outcast among the staid seniors, what with his brash persona and constant table talk, there is no reason for his tablemates to believe that he is an accomplished tournament player.
We watched Ji combine his superior skills with sheer aggression to pad his chip lead here in the Seniors Championship, as he opened for 1,400 from early position. The action folded around to the big blind, who squeezed his cards slowly before capping them and tossing in a call.
On the 
flop, the big blind player tried his best to appear casual, nodding his head along with the tune playing from his headphones, but his check was all Ji needed to pounce on the pot. A bet of 2,300 was enough to force the fold, and Ji added another wing to his rapidly expanding chip castle.
Having made a deep run in the high-skill game of Pot-Limit Omaha only yesterday, Ji has parlayed a little run good into a huge chip advantage over a relatively soft field, and this may spell trouble for the surviving seniors here as the first day of play continues.
