Konnikova Finds the Right Turn to Eliminate Tuil
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Teddy Tuil raised for Maria Konnikova to call and she then check-called for 5,000 on the K♦Q♥8♣ flop. That led them to the 7♣ turn on which Konnikova checked again. Tuil bet 15,000 and called all-in when Konnikova jammed.
Teddy Tuil: K♣Q♣
Maria Konnikova: 7♠7♦
The turned set of sevens was ahead while Tuil needed a king, queen or club to avoid elimination. Nothing changed with the 10♠ river and that spelled the end for Tuil, who left the tournament area with his head shaking.
