Maria Konnikova

Ying Zhu raised to 80,000 from the hijack and Maria Konnikova jammed from the big blind for 275,000. Zhu made the call.

Maria Konnikova: 5♣5♥ All in
Ying Zhu: Q♥10♣

Konnikova started slightkly ahead with her pocket fives, but fell way behind after the Q♣8♥6♠ flop gave Zhu top pair.

The 7♠ turn and 10♦ river only improved Zhu to two pair, and Konnikova was eliminated from the event.
