Konnikova Makes the Right Fold
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Maria Konnikova limped the small blind with A♦9♥ and Brock Wilson checked his option in the big blind with 5♣3♣.
On the A♣5♦3♠ flop, Konnikova led for 40,000 before Wilson raised to 125,000, and Konnikova put in the call.
The turn brought the 5♠. Wilson did not slow down as he barreled for 250,000, but Konnikova was able to make the correct fold against Wilson's full house.
