Maria Konnikova
Maria Konnikova

Maria Konnikova, author and poker player, has been on a tear for the last two years, winning over $270,000 in live tournaments including a first place finish in the PCA National in 2018 worth $84,600. She has looked relaxed at the table all day, her stack drifting above and below starting level. We've not seen any major pots she has been involved in, although while her stack was being counted she tangled with the big blind briefly. She had raised under the gun, seeing a {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop. She checked back when the big blind checked, but bet 2,000 when the {k-Spades} came down on the turn. The big blind called and led for 5,100 on the {9-Hearts} river; she let her hand go.

Meanwhile elsehere Steven Storwick eliminated his right hand side neighbour to raise his stack to 120,000.
