Phil Laak, Class Clown

"Ah, you bet the maximum," says Phil Laak to his opponent (mind you, this is a limit event). "I call." The board read {J-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}, and the turn card was the {K-Clubs}. "You bet it again? I just call." The {A-Hearts} fell on the river. "Okay, this time I bet the maxiumum." He tells his opponent, "I have {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} or {Q-Spades}{10-Spades}." After some thought, his opponent dumps his hand, and Laak remarks, "Actually, you know I had the set of queens."
