Kornuth Wins Round Two Versus Konnikova

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

A player in middle position opened to 700 and received a call from Chance Kornuth in the hijack before Maria Konnikova raised to 3,200 from the button. Both Kornuth and the player in middle position made the call.

The flop came J75 and action checked to Konnikova who bet 2,000. The middle position player called before Kornuth check-raised to 7,500. Konnikova called and the middle position player folded.

The turn came the 9 and Kornuth bet 5,000. Konnikova made the fold and Kornuth showed K4 for a pure bluff.

Konnikova had bluffed Kornuth in the previous hand, making things even between the two players.

Konnikova Puts Kornuth In the Tank

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Maria Konnikova
Maria Konnikova

The hijack opened to 800 and Chance Kornuth three-bet to 3,000 in the cutoff. Maria Konnikova called in the small blind and so did the hijack.

The trio went to see a 975 flop and it checked to Kornuth who continued for 2,000. Konnikova raised it to 6,000 and the hijack called. Kornuth thought about his move for a minute and put 17,000 in the middle. Konnikova announced all in, covering her two opponents.

The hijack quickly folded but Kornuth went deep into the tank, with a remaining stack worth 29,000, and eventually gave back his cards to the dealer.

The turn was the 6 and both players checked to the 5 on the river. Two more checks and Sinclair flipped over QQ which was enough to beat his opponent's K10.

Buckner Gets One Through

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A player from early position bet 700 and received calls from players in the hijack, button, Steve Buckner in the small blind and a player in the big blind.

The flop came 93J and action checked around to the player on the button who bet 1,400. Buckner raised to 3,100, forcing everyone out of the pot except the original raiser who made the call.

Action checked through on the 5 turn. When the 2 came on the river Buckner bet 5,300, sending his opponent deep into the tank.

After a little over a minute the player on the button folded and Bucker showed 108 for a missed straight draw turned into a river bluff.
