"CHECK?"

Thought of all these threads where someone uses the word "check" as a question and is misunderstood last night when the floor had to come to the table over another of these. Turn is dealt, it's check/check and the first-to-act says "he CHECKED?" just as the river comes out. 2nd player hears "CHECK" and says "check" and just then FTA slams a stack on the table. Four-way argument results (the two players, plus each player picked up a "champion" for his cause). The bickering continued between one player and one champion for 2 minutes after the floor had ruled; the player who thought he was being angled shut up and accepted the ruling that the bet stands after uttering a single "this is BS" comment.
