Juvancic:
Mawji:

The turn and river have Mawji the triple, though he would have been eliminated had Barbero seen the hand through.

"Wow, I can't believe you just played that hand like that," chirped Barbero to Juvancic. "So bad."

"I know you have queens or jacks and are folding," Juvancic explained. "If he has ace-king I win a big pot."

The two bickered back and forth for awhile before Mawji looked Barbero dead in the eyes and said, "He outplayed you."

"Yeah, you're right," Barbero responded.
