Rocha Balancing His Speech Range

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Earlier, Alex Rocha made an over-bet river bluff with a small speech on top to induce his opponent to fold.

We hear the clock called on a player and find Rocha involved in another pot on the river. The board was fairly plain with the exception of three diamonds. As the floor is counting down the clock, Rocha's opponent asked him "what do you have?"

Rocha was quiet for a few seconds and then responded "I have something."

This was apparently enough to get Rocha's opponent to believe that he was bluffing as he moved all in. Rocha snap-called with the nuts, {A-Diamonds}{X-Diamonds} and joked after the hand "I had to balance my speech range after that last hand."
