Does Maria Konnikova Still Play Poker?

Since her first book, Poker Face, was published in 2009, Maria Konnikova has become one of the world’s most popular writers on the subject of poker. Her writing has been featured in The New Yorker, Wired, and other high-profile publications.

In a recent interview with PokerListings.com, Konnikova revealed that she still plays poker occasionally.

“I’ve been playing poker for about nine years now,” she said. “I play mixed games mostly, but I also enjoy limit hold’em and Omaha.”.

Konnikova’s results at poker tournaments are mixed. She has made some strong showings, including a 4th place finish in a $50,000 event at the Bellagio in 2014.

But she’s also had some poor performances – most notably a 6th-place finish at a $10,000 event at the WSOP in 2015.

So does Maria Konnikova still play poker? Yes, she does play poker occasionally. Her results are mixed, but she enjoys the game and finds it fun.
