We got to Joe Tehan's table when he was heads up with his opponent in a pot that had about 3,500 in it. The board read a dangerous 
, and it was checked to Tehan, who bet out 2,550. His opponent thought for about a minute before calling. The river came the 
, and it was checked to Tehan again, who counted out a big bet of 6,600 and threw it in the middle. This forced his opponent to go deep in the tank.
He counted out his chips, and eyeballed Tehan's stack for over two minutes. He continued to think for another minute or so, counting out his chips to assess the damage. Finally, after nearly 3 minutes of thinking, he chucked in the call, and Tehan showed 
for an ace high flush. His opponent started to shake his head, but didn't muck his hand yet. He continued to do this for about 15 seconds, before lifting his cards up. He started to flick his wrist, but stopped again, refusing to let go of his cards. After another 10 seconds, and a few shrugs of confusion from his table mates, Tehan's opponent finally threw his cards face up to the dealer, showing 
for a lesser flush. Tehan finally took the chips he waited patiently for, upping his stack to 44,000.
