From under the fun, Kevin MacPhee raised to 230,000. This ihas been the standard opening raise for MacPhee. Artur Wasek quickly grabbed a stack of chips and three-bet to 850,000. That reraise was enough to take down the pot and Wasek won some chips.
Wasek doesn't seem to count out his reraises, instead he just grabs a chunk of his chips and puts them across the betting line. Each time he does this, his opponents usually fold when they see that he has committed a hefty portion of his entire stack to the hand.

Kevin MacPhee
Ilari Tahkokallio raised from under the gun to 220,000. Both blinds made the call; Kevin MacPhee in the small blind and Artur Wasek in the big blind.
The flop came down and MacPhee checked. Wasek checked and then Tahkokallio fired a continuation bet of 360,000. That wasn't good enough in MacPhee's eyes. He raised to 870,000. Wasek folded and then Tahkokallio followed suit.
