In Rounders, what was Teddy's "sign"?

[PoPPeR]

Does anyone know what exactly gave him away at the end? Was it the way the cream was divided when he split it or something, or was it just purely done for cinema purposes.

when he had the made hand, he ate the oreo, when he didn't, he put the cookie back in his tray.

I believe it was whether he either 1) ate the cookie 2) reassembled it and put it back.

 

[PoPPeR]

oh, ok now i feel stupid. He never reassembles the oreo and puts it back though right?

that's exactly what he did.

beginning of movie:
1. KGB eats cookie, Mike goes all in, KGB has aces full house, cleans Mike out of about 45 grand.

End of movie:
2. Mike goes all in pre flop with pocket cowboys, KGB picks cookie up, splits it, looks at it, puts it back together and puts it back in the tray and folds.
3. Mike is about to put in a big bet with 2 pair. Before he does, KGB picks up a cookie, splits it, and eats it. Mike then checks, KGB raises him everything he's got, Mike promptly folds.

ohh, forgot about #2. Thanks for clearing that up

But then Mike says he figured out KGB's sign and so KGB quickly picks up on that.... then he "tosses his cookies" ...

Right but after that he's flustered and doesn't play as well.
