Action Jeff Will Call You With Queen High

Let's preface this hand by saying yes, it did happen this way, so don't send me hate mail saying it makes no sense. Everyone watching was completely baffled by the action.

On a flop of {A-Clubs} {10-Spades} {3-Spades}, Per Ummer checked, Jeff "ActionJeff" Garza bet 3,000 and Ummer called. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and both players checked. The river came the {10-Diamonds}. Ummer bet 5,800 and Garza called.

Ummer immediately mucked his cards, while Garza showed {Q-Hearts} {J-Clubs} and raked in the pot, leaving all bystanders scratching their heads over that river call.

Garza is now on 45,000 while Ummer dips to 13,500.
