MacPhee Doing Fine

Stud-8

Kevin MacPhee saw his stack decrease to just a few big bets before the last break, but that has all changed now, thanks in part to a hand we recently watched play out.

MacPhee: {x-} {x-} / {k-Spades} {7-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} / {x-}
Opponent: {x-} {x-} / {q-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {6-Spades} / {x-}

We arrived at the table on fourth street, with MacPhee firing out a bet. MacPhee's opponent called and then when he paired on fifth street, led with a bet. MacPhee called and his opponent would then check-call a bet on sixth. On seventh, MacPhee led again and his opponent called.

When MacPhee tabled {k-Hearts} {k-Clubs} {3-Clubs} , the tree kings were enough to see his opponent's cards into the muck and the pot to MacPhee.
