With a pot brewed of 19,500 on the turn of A539, Andy Su bet 5,500. Frank Stepuchin went into the tank, deciding what to do.

"First time all day you haven't said a word," Said Stepuchin.

After about 30 seconds, Stepuchin raised to 12,300, and Su made the call.

When the J hit the river, Su instantly checked, and Stepuchin took his time once again as he started talking aloud.

"What do you do if I shove?" He asked, "Look at me when you're talking to me."

Su stayed silent and still as Stepuchin continued, "27 more seconds," and proceeded to count himself down. "Look at me, come on."

Eventually, Stepuchin announced that he gave up, and checked behind. Su instantly tabled A10 for a pair of aces and Stepuchin mucked his hand.

"Now we can talk about it," said Su as he raked in the pot.
