Francis Carriere Eliminated by Felix Leclerc

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Francis Carriere was in the big blind and Felix Leclerc was in middle position. The two players got all in preflop after some unknown action.

Carriere had {k-}{10-} against the {a-Spades}{6-Spades} of Leclerc. The board ran out {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} and Carriere was already up and walking away from the table before the cards had finished being dealt. He did glance back, just to make sure he didn't river the winner, but he kept walking once the board completed and Leclerc won the hand.
