Anthony Ruberto (Miami, FL)

Jaki Cohen (Dania, FL) was seen exiting Table 1, heading to the cage to re-enter this flight.  He was short-stacked, and eliminated by one of the newest entrants into the flight, Anthony Ruberto (Miami, FL).  Tony really needs no introduction, earning at least $130,000 via tournaments in seven of the last eight years.  He's averaged $246,000 in earnings over that span, and is coming off another five-figure score just over two weeks ago.

Tony recently reached the final table of the 2017 Florida State Poker Championships $1,500 Main Event, finishing in fifth place for $34,689.  The result brought his earnings above $2,075,000, and helps him crack the top thirty in the all-time money list for the state of Florida (a list that contains many of the best players in the world).
