In one of the last hands before break, Isaac Baron bet 15,000 from the cutoff after fourth street with the board reading {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{a-Clubs}. Larry Ormson, from the button, popped it to 32,000 and Baron called. On the {k-Hearts} river, Baron fired out 75,000. Ormson began thinking, talking to himself and Baron intermittently.

"Is that a hundred?" he asked.

"Seventy-five," Baron replied, staying still aside from moving his mouth to speak and taking the occasional breath.

"Well, I know you don't have the nut flush," Ormson said. "What do you think?"

Baron simply stared straight ahead, and Ormson finally folded, showing {a-Hearts}.

The two exchanged some banter after the hand, with Ormson trying to extract some information about Baron's hand, but Baron only laughed and said he wouldn't say.
