Hibbert has taken a leave of absence
In a major poker move, Tom Hibbert took a huge risk, betting roughly 140k chips. Sat comfortably on the Button, his opponent, Julian Mosquera, decided to take the bait.
Their cards were revealed: Tom, holding a pair of sevens (7♠7♥), and Julian, sporting an ace-king (A♥K♣). The stage was set for a thrilling showdown.
The flop came out swinging with a king (K♦), a nine (9♠), and a five (5♦). This dealt Julian an immediate lead. The turn card, a five (5♠), didn't help Tom's cause. The river card, a three (3♥), solidified Julian's victory.
With this hand, Tom Hibbert was sent packing in 17th place, pocketing £1,300. Meanwhile, Julian Mosquera achieved a formidable chip count of 1,150,000, leaving Hibbert with zilch[1]. In short, Julian outplayed Tom in this hand, demonstrating his poker prowess.

Although Tom Hibbert showed courage in the game of poker, his luck didn't seem to favor him during the hand, as he was playing sports like every other player at the table. On the other hand, Julian Mosquera's victory was a testament to his formidable skills in sports, and his high chip count proved he was dominating the field.
