As we were walking between the rows of busy tables here at the $300 + $30 Closer Day 1A, we noticed an all-in hand at table 85 and paused to see how it would shake out. Francis Chevalier faced off against Anthony Ribeiro (pictured below) and the dealer had just laid down the river card.

Anthony, who is fresh off of fifth place cash in the Super High Roller event yesterday, is a strong player not to be underestimated. Francis revealed his hole cards, showing that he had made top pair on the jack-high board. However, Anthony flipped over a triumphant pair of pocket kings, ending Francis’ night. Exhaling a disappointed sigh, Francis took a walk, not expecting his sudden exit.
