Blasi Bows Out to Konnikova
Nível 12
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Picking up the action on the 
flop, Micky Blasi bet 4,500 and Maria Konnikova raised to 16,000 from one seat over in late position. Nobody else was in the hand and Blasi then shoved for around 35,000 to see Konnikova quickly call.
Micky Blasi: 
Maria Konnikova:
The 
turn and river were both blanks and Blasi was done for the day. "5,700?" Sebastian Langrock asked Konnikova, referring to how few chips the Friend of PokerStars had earlier in the day. "Something like that, I was down to three and a half big blinds," Konnikova replied and now sits at a far more comfortable stack.
