Ribouchon Scores an Elimination

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A Spanish player jammed for almost 50,000 from the hijack. "One by one," Florian Ribouchon in the big blind said before reavealing his first card, then his second one. He had a pair, so he called.

Hijack: A4 All in
Florian Ribouchon: 55

Ribouchon kept the lead all the way through a board of 4K6KQ so his opponent was eliminated. Because he revealed his cards too early, Ribouchon received a full-round penalty after this hand.
