Hey Greg,

speaking of Mike matusow,
can you give us some insight on the little incident that happened between you and him in the '04 WSOP. There is just a quick snippet in the TV program where they show him needling you after you make a laydown, and he says "im just kidding" and offers you a handshake and you pass on it.

What happened there?

Is your perception of him that hes an unsportsmanlike jerk, or are you guys amicable now?

Thanks for your contribution to this site Greg, keep on winning.

I think that's more just "making fun of" rather than hate.

show him needling you

i think it was significantly more than just 'needling'.
Mike was being a completely jack-ass.
Greg was correct to brush off his handshake attempt (as evidenced by Mike's reaction that was along the lines of "oooohhhh...he's not even going to shake my hand now")



I'm sure Greg has answered this question a zillion times (this is obviously what he is referring to when he mentions everyone coming up to him and wanting to talk about Matusow).
Not sure if he has specifically addressed it in the 2+2 forums or not. I would be interested...but don't think it's necessary.



Greg - FWIW, I think we all know that people stopping to talk with Ferguson will want to talk about Hellmuth because of the NBC Heads-up championship.
Also TJ since they met in the heads-up semi-finals and also in the 2000 WSOP of course.

I don't hate Chris Ferguson by any means but Is he actually alive in there ?

Of people who are involved in the poker world, Dutch is probably #1 on the hate list, because of his thievery.

Greg,

Many people that are new to the poker world have no clue as to Dutch's POKERSPOTS poker room and all the players that were never paid Hundreds of thousands of dollars when cashing out and the room went belly up soon afterwards...

Dutch is hard to top because of his history.

But for obnoxious table antics, Tony G is hard to beat [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
