Big name former NBA star Gilbert Arenas was one of 295 poker players to take part in day 1A of the $10,000,000 Guaranteed Main Event of the 2014 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure or PCA.

Arenas was eliminated halfway through the first day after accidentally raising a pot (when he was merely trying to call). 

The event is a $10,300 buy-in and Arenas has plenty of cash after having signed a $111 million contract with the Washington Wizards back in 2008.

The 31-year-old former NBA player may not be “former” much longer as he is reportedly planning a comeback.
