It looks like my brother Ross might have to watch his back in the acting stakes as it seems your reporter was taken in by my ham performance at the table when i checked to get a bet out an opponent having rivered a straight on a paired board. I just read the following report from the Lodon EPT.
If only my opponents at the table could be so easily fooled!

What a Player
Barny Boatman got involved in a pot with a PokerStars qualifier.

He called a bet on a flop, and then bet out 4,000 into an 8,000 pot when the came on the turn. He was called.

The river was the and both players checked.

Barny, who was first to show his cards, did so reluctantly with for the nut straight, and then said, "Oh f***!" — not realizing the strength of his hand.

Lol, that kind of performance is telling about high pressure in the Game . Or maybe just a careless play.

I think you missed the point ArttuK.
I knew what I had and checked to get a bet from my opponent. I couldn't believe the reporter was fooled into thinking I didn't know what I had. None of the players were, including my opponent, who had missed his flush.
