I appreciated Phil taking the Mouth to task on the latest Learn from the Pros for some of his conduct unbecoming of an ex-felon.

He was fairly calm and direct about it.. tried not to escalate....

I particularly liked this resulting exchange RE: Matusow's anger:

Chris Rose: "How does that not take you out of your game, though?"
Mike Matusow: "What's that?"
CR: "When you're goin like this [waves hands around] and you're yelling at people and yo--"
MM: "I DON'T YELL AT PEOPLE!! LOOK, I ONLY Y-"
CR: [panicked and blinking a lot] "YOU'RE YELLIN AT ME RIGHT NOW; I don't even have any chips in front of me!"

Honestly, I think that is the only funny thing I have ever heard Chris Rose say.

This has been discussed ad nauseam, but do you think the new MM is "good for poker." What about ESPN giving his single bicker war with a dealer more air time than most pros total allotment? Could this WSOP time have been better used? Is there any hope anymore for WSOP ??? -- If not Mike, would they just use the time for some other garbage like a life profile of the smelly brit? How did he get loud? obnoxious? smelly? America wants to know...
