Re: Mike Matusow: More Than a Mouthful in cardplayer
The article was fascinating until I realized that it wasn't fiction, then I put the magazine down. Boxtree and I saw Matusow late last night at Commerce. We were eyeballing a NL game and he walks up to take a peek. Some young player with an accent hollers, "Hey, Mike Matusow, sit here at this table!" Mike glances at the chips at the table and says, "I don't play that cheap." Then the young player whips out a laptop and offers Mike to play online. Mike looked excited and then they huddle together at the screen.
Matsutow looked like he either woke up from a 24 hour nap, or he hads been homeless for a month. He looked a real mess. His too small old sports jersey that he wore didn't cover his too big gut that pertruded out. I could have never pictured this guy to be a winning player.
