Default \"Get away from me!!!\"

My new favorite thing about DVR was watching Matusow whine this over and over during the coverage of the air hockey/ping pong/spelling bee prop bet.

Anyone know what Matusow was so pissed about, or anything else about the bet?

The prop bet was a 4 stage event with a single winner getting a free buy in to the WSOP main event in 2006.

Each of the four players chose one event. There was air hockey (Ted Forrest's pick), card tossing, ping pong, and spelling bee (Erick Lindgren's pick).

And all this while FOUR events were occurring simultaneously in the Rio's card room. (2500 NLHE, PLHE (not sure buy in), ladie's event, and an omaha event (5k rebuy?))

Completely, Out Of Con Trol!


I think Mike was just pissed that he didn't do well in an event. I think he expected to do better at tossing cards and Ted Forrest totally outpimped him.

I think they moved some of those "events" to the ESPNZone at NYNY on the Strip.

They must have done something, as i don't think there's an air hockey table at the Rio (is there??).

You are correct, sir. The DVR confirmed this. It never gets any less hilarious to watch him flip out though. If Mike the Mouth was hamming it up, he's a brilliant comedic actor.

Who was that Mike almost hit?

Also, Erick Lindgren misspelled "hypotenuse" but they gave it to him anyway! What was that all about?!

Spelling bees are rigged.
