The flop was {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, and Li took control. The turn however, found Mcnally, when the {7-Spades} hit the board to give him a full house. The {3-Spades} river changed nothing, sending the main pot to Mcnally and the side pot to Li.

Phillips: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Zhen: {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
