"I Normally Don't Do This"
Preston McEwen was on the button with a bet of 13,000 in front of him preflop and action was back on him with a decision to make for his stack, as Suzan Samuels covered him and had come over the top from the small blind.
McEwen asked her a question about how she was doing and she jovially responded saying she was great. A small dialogue ensued, albeit one that was not thoroughly audible. Whatever the exact subject matter, it gave McEwen all the information he needed to make a decision.
"I normally don't do this," he said as he folded face up.
Samuels then confirmed his deviation from the norm was a correct one, turning over for pocket rockets, which had McEwen's suited ace-king smoked before the flop, which would not come as the pot was sent Samuels' way and the table got ready for the next hand.
