"I'll show you," said Apostolidis while Engel tanked.

After that, the two engaged in some back-and-forth chatter while Engel played with 50,000 in chips in his hands debating whether or not he would make the call.

"Can I say what I have?" Apostolidis asked to the dealer and floor staff member present.

"No," said the floor man with a shake of his head.

"Yes, I vote yes," said Engel while he gave a thumbs up.

Another half a minute passed, and then Apostolidis began talking some more.

"I have to show or otherwise you'll think less of me," he said to Engel.

Eventually, Engel called, and Apostolidis showed the for trips.

"Thank you, thank you," said Apostolidis. "I really appreciate this."

Apostolidis collected the chips while he kept thanking Engel for paying him off.

"Thank you," Apostolidis said. "You're a nice person, I'll tell you that."

"Thank you," responded Engel. "You, too."
