Is he the guy who told Raymer he had "small cajones" or something last year - then cried when his AK was beat - by AQ on the river I think?

If that's the same guy, he's a jerk and a loser. No way I want someone like him to win.

If you are basing your opinion just on these events, you need to reconsider. Sure the crying was a little ridiculous, but getting rivered in the ME has to hurt a bit. As far as the incident with Greg, if Fossilman can forgive and forget (and be friendly with Mike this year) then so can you. If Greg, Ivey and Mike all made the final table it would have been wonderful, but I would have been conflicted on who to root for, now that its just Mike, I can easily say GO MIKE, take this one down for all the pro's.

I'm in Mouth's corner.

He's kind of like the bad guy in wrestling that you rooted for when you were a kid.

The guy has no character or class. His whole demeanor was pretty pathetic and immature - he makes Hellmuth seem like a saint.

too right, we need more people that sit there silently and show no emotion, or just suck out on other people all the time, rather than a top holdem player with a bit of character

You are clearly an idiot that doesn't know who Mike Matusow is.

Thanks for identifying yourself for the rest of us.

I find it comical that some of you expect a professional poker player to be a saint as well. I'd much rather see a man with his emotion and heart than a boring fock who does nothing but twiddle his thumbs and play with his chips all day. Believe it or not, people like Mike get people talking about poker. And more exposure can never be a bad thing for the game.

I am rooting for Mike based on the fact that once he's gone from the final table it will be less entertaining.
