MacPhee Finds Aces, As Linde Expected
"He just wins," Dylan Linde said, right before Kevin MacPhee did exactly what his friend said.
Flash back a few minutes, when we spotted the two best friends from Coeur d'Alena, Idaho sitting side-by-side.
Linde (ImaLucSac) and MacPhee (ImaLuckSac) are very successful players both online and live, but we were curious to see who's been doing better versus the other.
"He beats me all the time," Linde said with a smile, as he wasn't involved in the hand that was ongoing.
"Lifetime he's busted me a lot more than I busted him, especially in live tournaments," Linde added.
MacPhee, who has $5.4 million in live tournament earnings, had his breakout score in 2010 when he won EPT Berlin for a cool million euros. Since then MacPhee has won a WSOP bracelet in 2015 for $490,800, and the WSOPE Main Event for $1,001,577.
"He just wins," Linde then added, right after the following hand.
MacPhee raised to 1,500. The action folded to the player in the big blind, and he three-bet. MacPhee moved all in for 16,100 and he was called right away.
