Default Re: Greg refuses to shake his hand

While I'm sure Greg was pissed at the time, imagine what would be going on if he had shoke his hand. Everyone would be on his side and calling Madasow a total ass and Greg a total class act for not only taking his abuse but also shaking his hand about it. Wow think about that for five minutes then realize you've got better [censored] to do.

From the first time I saw Matasow on TV, I thought he looked like a degenerate piece of sh!t.

Tv appearances since have only served to confirm that initial impression.

I wouldnt give that guy the time of day.

Matusow is a total jack*ss. I wouldn't shake his hand and I wouldn't be concerned about people thinking I am not a "class act" for not shaking his hand. The way Matusow acts, I'm sure alot of people refuse to shake his hand.

One thing that Greg and "the mouth" Matasow have in common is that neither of them is concerned about being "a class act."

Greg isn't concerned because he consistently carries himself in such a manner that it is never brought to question.

Mike obviously isn't concerned because he consistently acts in such a manner that shows he holds no value in it.

man there is joking around and then there is demeaning malicious type acting around. If you fancy yourself anykind of a poker player and can't read the tone Mike was giving off you are not a good poker player.

No one in his right mind would shake his hand after that. His tone and actions was the worst I've seen in televised poker. Now if you see Deeb eventhough he swears ever other word he's a good natured guy, something Mike is not.

I saw it as one guy joking around and having fun, then when he realized that he was out of line, he immediately apologized saying, 'Hey you know I'm only joking man, no hard feelings.'

You read it wrong. Matusow was being an a-hole, plain and simple. He was still condescending as he 'apologized.'

From all I have seen of "the mouth" mike matusow, I would like to punch him square in "the mouth". What a classless fool.

I wouldn't have shook his hand either. He was an ass, and trying to be an ass. But, seeing Gregg sit there with those glasses on staring at the guy while he goes on his tirade was priceless.

Without knowing what happens to the mouth...i'm assuming he chernobyl'd soon after and dropped all his chips.

I'm hoping someone will tell me that Greg was the one who took them.

I guess part of the reason I'm not as 'outraged' as most is that I don't have any preconceived ill-will toward him. I've seen him play a few times before, but as I said, I rarely hold tv showings against anyone, so whatever he did before, I didn't hold against him.
