Hand #157: Kevin MacPhee Eliminated in 4th Place ($142,070)
Kevin MacPhee is under the gun and he open-shoves for approximately 1.3 million.
Natasha Barbour is next to act on the button and she asks for a rough count, and before a number is even declared she eyeballs MacPhee's stack and announces the call.
The blinds fold out and the two players show down.
MacPhee:
Barbour:
Both players find big aces but MacPhee's big slick has the dominant lead. The dealer fans the flop and MacPhee adds a four-flush to reduce Barbour's outs, and the Broadway cards on board mean she now needs a king (of the non-heart variety) rather than a queen to catch up.
The turn comes down and both players pair their aces, but the card essentially changes nothing.
River:
Barbour's gin card arrives - much to her delight - while a stunned MacPhee can only shake his head at the three-out hit that costs him a chance at the bracelet.
Natasha Barbour - 6,200,000
Kevin Macphee - Eliminated
