Wow, this was a good interview. I've always liked Matusow, and this reinforced that.

Re: Interview w/ The Mouth
Yeah I came away with a much different view of him than his "TV personna" so to speak. First of all I think the guy came off as being quite intelligent. Second of all I have alot of respect for someone who attributes his losses to his bad play. He said his "A" game is great but he doesn't always bring it to the table. Also I found his comments about the following to being quite believable:
--being setup by the police. --his attitude about money. --his description of his depression. I think he came off very well in the interview FWIW. He took accountability for his problems. |

Re: Interview w/ The Mouth
This was an amazing interview, but by far the best part is:
I love going at it with Phil Hellmuth. It gets to the point where he has to pull me to one side and say, "You better knock it off, you've gone too far!" In the future, I want pay-per-view poker. I want heads-up matches with Phil Hellmuth. I mean, poker's a bit like All-Star Wrestling -- they'd probably cast me as the bad guy. Can you imagine me versus Phil? I would absolutely destroy him. Not only will I beat him because he can't play a lick to me, but after I beat him, I will mentally, physically and emotionally just [expletive] destroy him. |

My favorite part by far:
"It's gonna be fun when I go to the gym because there are so many hot chicks in there. I'll be honest, I go to the gym, but right now, I'm a fat ass. But I just made $50,000 of weight-loss bets with a bunch of guys, so …" |

Re: Interview w/ The Mouth
This part caught my eye:
"I have the best etiquette. I only [expletive] with people I know. If there's an idiot at the table and I don't know him, I don't make fun of him because he plays like an idiot. I don't say a word. [Greg] Raymer, I didn't know, but he started [expletive] with me -- they don't show that part. He consistently [expletive] with me and he persistently came after me, so finally I said, "You better quit [expletive] with me, 'else I'm gonna [expletive] bust you." Then he did it again and I showed him the 5-high bluff and I said, "You got no [expletive] balls [expletive]. I got big balls, you got little balls." Now that was basically a statement to say "stop [expletive] with me," but he kept doing it. I told him I was going to break him and I got him to put all his chips in on a flush draw. Of course, he hit the flush." It would be interesting to hear Greg's thoughts on this. |
