No Church in the Wild

tRaMSt0p

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

On a board of with roughly 60,000 in the middle, Phil Ivey checked from the hijack over to his opponent Naor Slobodskoy on the button.

Slobodskoy bet out 24,000, and Ivey called as the river landed the .

Ivey now led for 60,000, and after a few moments, Slobodskoy slid out two stacks of orange 5,000-denomination chips for a raise to 200,000.

Immediately, Ivey shot him a stare like he was looking deep into his soul for an answer.

Ivey continued to riffle chips in his right hand as his trademark open-mouth blank stare followed.

A crowd of spectators and ESPN cameras had gathered around the table to sweat Ivey's decision, and for the 10-time WSOP bracelet winner, he continually traded glances between Slobodskoy and into blank space.

Several minutes went by, and Ivey removed his headphones and continued looking at Slobodskoy who had remained motionless the entire time since he slid out the raise.

Ivey continued to search for an answer, and with a multitude of camera crews now surrounding his table, Ivey slowly pushed his cards to the muck.

Slobodskoy reached forward to pull back his 200,000 raise, and Ivey tapped the table and acknowledged Slobodskoy as the pot was pushed to Slobodskoy, and the players at the table returned to normal play as the surrounding media vacated the area.
