Dong Chen three-bet in the small blind and Phil Ivey called in middle position.
Chen continued betting on the Q♣10♦J♥ flop and 5♦ turn. Ivey called down to the 9♠ river.
Chen then bet again, and Ivey tanked for a few minutes before folding.
A few hands later, Daniel Negreanu bet from under the gun on a flop of 3♦7♥9♦ and Ivey called in the big blind. Ivey bet on the 5♣ turn, and Negreanu whipped out his camera and called off the rest of his stack.
Ivey showed 6♠5♠ for a pair of fives. "We need an ace or a king," Negreanu said as he turned over A♠K♣, and he caught the A♣ on the river to double up.
"If that was Gus, we would be drawing dead. You like that, Gus? You monkey. More chips for you," Negreanu teased Gus Hansen after the hand.
