Haha, good story and a good point. I can just imagine some belligerent old man refusing to put that last $5 into the pot.

I think the tell is particularly significant in tournaments, if a guy could have plausibly shoved the river but chooses instead to leave himself ten or so BBs.

There was a lot of discussion afterwards about that, but we all agreed he must have been bluffing the 3-bet. The question was whether keeping the ast $5 chip was a tell, not that it mattered in this case because seat 5 had the stone cold nuts and was going to shove anyway.
