Ji Makes Correct Call For Tournament Life

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Lynne Ji
Lynne Ji

Lynne Ji opened from middle position to 900. She got a few callers but when the action got to the player in the big blind he raised to 5,500. Ji called and the other players folded.

The flop came {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. Ji's opponent continued for 11,000 and she called.

Her opponent jammed the {9-Spades} turn having her covered.

Ji sat back in her chair, looked at her cards, and said, "Because I like you guys so much I am gonna take an extra 30 seconds before I call...I don't think I am ever folding this."

After glancing back at her cards several times another lady at her tabled asked her, "did they change?"

Ji laughed and responded, "No they didn't change...I guess it's better to bust on Day 1 than on Day 2."

She made the call putting her tournament life on the line. Her opponent said what every poker player loves to hear, "Good call."

Lynne Ji: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Opponenet: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The {3-Hearts} completed the board. Ji's pocket tens held for a double.
