With two limpers in front of him, Phil Ivey raised to 1,000 from late position trying for the classic squeeze play. Unfortunately for fans of the best player in the world, an unknown opponent on the button three-bet to 3,000.
This prompted the Ivey stare we've all seen before, and after thirty seconds or so of soul withering eye contact, Ivey's patented facial recognition software read the player as strong, as Ivey released his hand into the muck.
He now sits with approximately 5,700 and will need a strong showing after the latest 20-minute break concludes.

With the board reading 
, Long Nguyen pushed all-in for 5,200 chips, and was met with a protracted staredown from his unknown opponent. After more than two minutes had passed, the tanker, who had more than enough chips to cover the bet, had the clock called on him.
After thinking it over for another 30 seconds or so, the player grabbed a handful of chips and made the call with his 
for an overpair to the board.
Nguyen had him beat, however, with his and a clean run out later he secured a much needed double up. Nguyen now sits with just under 15,000 in his stack, and was seen using those chips aggressively in the next pot.
