It was all “YellOw”
Hong Jin Ho, also known as ‘YellOw’, is famous for never having won first place in major StarCraft tournaments despite strong performances. He managed to finish second place six times, which earned him the title “King of Silver“.
After the retirement, Jin Ho started participating in TV shows. His breakthrough as a popular TV star happened when he became the champion of the Korean reality game show “The Genius: Rules of the Game”.
In true Hong Jin Ho fashion, he finished 2nd in the J88PT Main Event in March. In the last hand of the tournament he had Q♠Q♣ against Chi Hang’s 10♦10♠, the final board 9♦7♥2♣10♣6♦.
