Konnikova Hits River Two-Outer to Crack Chuzeville's Aces

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

In the last hand before the second break of the day, Antoine Chuzeville opened to 1,200 from the cutoff. Maria Konnikova three-bet from the big blind to 4,800. Chuzeville decided to flat.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Konnikova continued for 7,500 and Chuzeville moved all in. Konnikova called and was behind and at risk.

Maria Konnikova: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Antoine Chuzeville: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

The {9-Diamonds} took away a potential flush draw for Konnikova but a miracle {j-Diamonds} on the river gave her the two-outer she was looking for.

Konnikova doubled up to 74,000 while Chuzeville was left with a little over 25% of his original starting stack.
