Confusing tilt hand

[Russ McGinley]

Here is a relevant poker question to that hand.

If its heads up and you are first to act, and you say what the Matador says.... "I know you want to bet at it, so im gonna let you". Is that really considered checking to him? I dont here any verbal check or see any hand motion, so I was confused as to why the sheriff guy checked behind right there.

Saying "check", "bet", or any of those "old poker lingo terms" is for suckers. Only the best say "I know you want to bet, so I'm gonna let you". I know I can't wait to say that on every hand.
