As far as I am concerned with online poker you can come and go as you please so if you double up on the first hand I say it is totally alright to take the money and run.
I wouldn't want to do this at a home game though. It is home game etiquette to give the others the chance to win their money back.

This is fine. You can do that in the future if you have a proper bankroll management.

think online poker
it is fine to double and run.
but it is a two side blade situation
by the same time you sitting out and leaving table to prevent from losing your profit, you also potentially lost some chance to win more money.

I take table selection quite seriously and there's a number of players I don't want to have position on me. The way I deal with this is that if a player I don't want sits down I'll play until he's paid in or until I win a hand before leaving. It's not technically hit and running but the idea is to make money... not to give it to better players. At the end of the day though, if people want to hit and run, it's their choice. Remember that there used to be a rule against check-raising, would we want to go back to that much regulation.

Do what you will, but why. Playing poker is one very long session with breaks of varying length. Do you plan to double up and never play poker again? I play when the game is good and walk when it's not so good.
