Richard Bremer raised in the cutoff, after which Espen Sandvik three-bet from the big blind. Bremer called, and Sandvik nearly choked on a piece of food before he recovered and bet the Q♠2♣10♣ flop.

"That must be a tell," Bremer joked as he tossed in a call. Sandvik also fired the 5♦ turn, again seeing Bremer call. He took some time on the J♥ river, but eventually settled on another bet.

Bremer quickly called, leaving only 2,000 behind. Sandvik showed A♠Q♣3♣2♠ for top and bottom pair, and he won the pot when Bremer added his cards to the muck.

"If he chokes, he has two pair," the dealer joked as he pushed Sandvik the chips.
