Kevin MacPhee was one of the shortest stacks in the room, and really needed to reverse his chip trend. He managed to do that thanks to the help of Andrew Watson.
Watson raised to 10,000 and called when MacPhee three-bet to 32,500. Before the 
flop came down Watson asked how much his opponent had left. MacPhee counted out and answered, "Thirty-four thousand."
After the flop appeared MacPhee waited a minute before moving all in. Watson asked how much it was and that prompted MacPhee to respond with, "Thirty-four thousand. The same as when you asked just before!"
Watson called with 
for a flush draw.
MacPhee was ahead with 
and stayed there through the 
turn and river.
