There was a dead small blind for the first hand back from dinner, and Phil Ivey began it with an under-the-gun raise to 120,000. Ali Eslami defended his naked big blind, and off they went.
The paired flop brought them 
. Ivey bet another 120,000, and Eslami check-folded without much trouble.
Ivey went ahead and stole the blinds when the button came around to him, too.
Things have started off just a bit tighter in the first few hands back.
