No Hablo Inglés

On a flop of {6-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, Millie Shiu checked to Andreas Torbergsen, who bet 2,000. Shiu made the call. On the turn of the {5-Diamonds}, Shiu again checked. Torbergsen bet out 4,000 and Shiu immediately reraised all in.

Torbergsen then tried to get Shiu to speak, and she said, "I don't speak English."

Torbergsen thought for a long time and finally folded. Torbergsen claimed that he folded {Q-?} {Q-?}.

Shiu: "You folded queens?"
Torbergsen jokingly replied, "So you do speak English."
Shiu: "Now I do speak English."

After the hand, Torbergsen is down to 20,600.
