Dodging the MacPhee

In what would ultimately become a prelfop raising war, Kevin MacPhee fired the first arrow, opening up the action for 1,250 from middle position.
Seated on the button, Almira Skripchenko dipped into her stack and made it 3,000, but MacPhee continued his onslaught by four-betting to 8,250!
Skripchenko paused for a moment, before five-betting to 18,000 and adopting a stoic pose that would have sealed victory in any game of musical statues.
MacPhee seemed tempted to pad the pot even further, but eventually opted for the fold, allowing Skripchenko to pick up a sumptuous pot uncontested.
She now has 90,000, whilst the Berlin EPT victor is back down to 35,000.
