Truth or Consequences

Do you remember a Fox Sports Net poker show a few years ago, where the players were wired to heart monitors?  The theory was that their pulse rates increased when they held big hands.

Now there's scientific evidence that people who lie also have a higher heart rate, as their blood pressure goes up.

So it's a risky move to bluff -- but apparently more dangerous to your body if you state the bluff to others.

Have you ever noticed your body changing during a poker tournament?  If so, what happened? (Please do not mention your stories of drunkenness; we're not counting that.)
