He never replied.
I eventually won one of them, a $10,000 entry to the WPT Shooting Star at Bay 101. In diesem Event der World Series of Poker 2019 haben noch 16 Spieler Chancen auf das Bracelet. Maybe they could be a superstar, too.
Joe "fanofdapoker" McKeehen schnappte sich den Sieg im $3200 High Roller der...Nach sieben Blind Levels war der Tag beendet. Many of my usual red pro opponents would then move up to play the nosebleed stakes, putting their paychecks on the line in $500/1000 games.Mike is a very troubled man with, at least at times, a gambling problem, a drug problem, and a significant mental health problem.
Everything that goes wrong for him is the fault of bad poker players, bad luck, and those damn commie liberals.This is why Mike’s behavior has been tolerated for so long.
We played heads up quite a bit, and three- or four-handed many times.esc_html_e('Comments are closed.
I disagree with him on pretty much everything these days. I assume he turned off the chat window. Beide spielen um ihr fünftes Bracelet.
Action on the table folded around to Frank "Spaghettiii" Marasco who limped in from the small blind and Mike "mouth123" Matusow checked hi option from the big blind brining the flop.. Marasco led out for 1,600 and Matusow called to see the appear on the turn. Because Mike is not an intimidating person at all. Then I got a real hand and he paid me off. It’s just a few minutes, a brief window into his life, but it seems pretty clear that he’s a mess. And Mike was a night owl, too.
For some, this makes it easy to root against him, mock him, and enjoy his failures.
And Mike was making good money as a member of the Full Tilt pro team.
Anyone who knows anything about high stakes poker knows that Mike has been broke for many years.
I’ve seen people exploit him with prop bets and abuse his kindness whenever he actually has a few dollars in his pocket.Aside from those who agree with his politics and enjoy the validation, most people watch for the train wreck. It would be my first tournament bigger with a buy-in above $500, and I was looking forward to a fun trip to California.A few hours in I ran a big bluff on Mike.
If Mike moved down to play in my game, I knew it was going to be a good night.
In fact, he was the best indicator of how the games would be. He just played.The Mike Matusow we see now is predictable, trite, and often sad.
I watched a poker player, who I won’t name, hand Mike pills all day during a WSOP event, even after Mike had been to rehab and his drug problems were widely known. I imagine it’s tough to lose $50,000 or more and then try to play well in a game where a big win might be $6,000.
Mildly amused. If Mike is ever bothering you, I suspect you could just get in his face and tell him to shut up, and he would apologize quietly while looking at his feet.
