This seems more like a still life and probably would have been a bit better with a shallower DOF and keeping everything in focus. The white balance seems off as well - the cards have a pink tint to them. And boys night out and chess? huh? :)

Interesting composition. I like reflection of the other aces in the hand. I'm not sure how the chess pieces fit in. Also, I would have preferred the label of the bottle to all be in focus. Nice shot.

Technicals look well executed and to a poker player this may be an interesting shot - just not my style ... but that's just a personal preference.

you lost this image when you neglected to set your white ballance appropriately. that could have been fixed in post, by adjusting your curves and setting the white point as a white point on the cards. the composition is a little busy, the chess pieces could have been eliminated and replaced with poker chips. chips wouldn't have filled the frame as tightly and would have been less distracting. the white "knight" is very distracting. barely holding onto a 6
