A Blowup

During the World Series Mike "The Mouth" Matusow has worn T-shirts with "No Blowups" written on the back. Matusow just ignored his own wardrobe's advice.

After the action was folded around Tonio Scali raised from the small blind. Matusow raised to 5,600 out of the big blind, and Scali re-raised to 15,600. Matusow pushed all-in and Scali called.

Scali held pocket aces, Matusow pocket sixes. The aces held up and Matusow now sits with 24,000 while Scali rose to 46,000.

Reviewing what transpired, Matusow said, "That might've been the worst-played hand of my life."
