We missed the preflop action, but John Conkright was all in against Kevin MacPhee. Conkright held the red queens; MacPhee held the black eights. There was no help for MacPhee on a board of {4-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {10-Hearts}, and after the dealer counted down Conkright's stack, MacPhee was left with only 70,000.

"You've been a thorn in my side all day," MacPhee said to Conkright. "Nice hand."

The remainder of MacPhee's stack went in the middle a few hands later on a jack-high flop. His {J-?} {8-?} was behind Nathan Templeton's pocket kings and did not improve. MacPhee earned $36,442 for his exploits.
