"Matusow Blowup?!"
Level 4
: 200/400, 50 ante
With about 9,000 in the pot already, on a board reading 
, Doug Polk checked from late position. Mike Matusow was in the hijack and bet 3,400. Polk thought for a moment and called.
The river was the 
, and Polk checked. Matusow quickly checked back, and Polk tabled 
for a flush. Matusow flashed his hand to Polk and quickly tossed his cards into the muck.
As Polk was raking in the pot, a player at the table behind shouted out, "Matusow blowup?!" The few players who overheard it had a chuckle, and Matusow calmly received his next hand.
