Konnikova Eliminated by Wright
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Maria Konnikova, author of the New York Times bestseller Mastermind: How to Think Like Sherlock Holmes, has been eliminated.
Konnikova was short-stacked long before the bubble and her stack dropped even more today. She eventually ended up all in against two opponents, as they continued playing for a side pot through the 
board.
Konnikova then showed 
but her bottom pair wasn't good as Erick Wright turned over 
for a straight. Wright offered a "good game" and Konnikova thanked him before leaving with a member of the payout crew.
Wright is off to a great start, nearly doubling his stack within the first 15 minutes of today's play.
