matusow's got a bad case of diarrhea of the mouth. needs to clam up. and everyone, everyone says "you think he's a jerk huh? how many [insert poker accomplishment here]'s to YOU have, huh? i thought so!" like that proves anything other than the speaker has a difficult time with basic logical statements. but whatever. some people are jerks, and some jerks support them.

matusow is playing the poker of his life right now. he is the most relaxed player left in this tournament. i think this year s series is revenge oft the pro and sweet revenge for the mouth

Matusow and Helmuth are the least respectable poker players of all time. True, both have talent, but that's no excuse to be a dick. You can learn to be a great poker player, but if you don't have some class, you're shit to me. Learn something from the true poker players, like Brunson, Ivey, Lederer, and Cloutier

They had 5 rounds in an hour and a half. They ended at 1:30a. Good thing they started at 12p today. Matusow is up above 4mil now.

Matusow is kicking butt right now. I hate to say, and kinda feel bad, but I almost hope he busts out. No offense to him, but I want to see what happens if he does. Mike Matusow BlowUp, here we come...

Plus, if he leaves the tourney now, he will have enough money to purchase at least 2,300 dimebags of X and can then turn them around and make the million he would have anyways.

Blowout - great comment execpt its coke for him not x.

I predict this guy will lose a MASSIVE all-in pot to another big stack when J-J faces a Q-Q. Then he will spit the dummy, tip the table over and bash up Phil Ivey. This will be immediately followed by an all-in tilt holding 7-3o and called by an A-K and be busted out just before the final table.

there is no such thing as "dimebags of X" get a clue moron! If the guy wants do take part in drug activity, leave him alone, we don't call out the fact that your gay

does anybody know why first place only pays 50% more than last year ($5->$7.5 mil) when there are more than twice as many players (2600->5600)? I think they spread the money out more. Everybody at the final table gets at least $1 mil. I think I like that. It's good more guys are gettin paid.KB

If Fossilman wins again this year I'm going on a postal rampage. Hide your women.

I hope all you dissong on Mike feel really dumb when you watch the wsop on tv next week. While he may be a bit emotional there is no doubt he truly is on of the best players in the world

kind of funny when i looked back and read this whole post. who would of thought that he would be kicking eveyones ass? for all you haters - never made a mistake in life? hes making a living doing what he does and you make a living doing what you do. who do you think is having more fun?

THE CHIP LEADER. he is giving hope to the lowest of low

Mike is a excellent player and from day 1 I've been pulling for him. Yeah he wines alot but he gets the job done! I don't see but a few professional players still left in the game and a whole lot that has gone home. Fact is that he is number 1 right now...and you can talk all the bs about mike. One thing is for sure he's going home with a lot more money than you will see in 10 years...fry manager

24 left now and he has over 6mil in chips he will win this and is a great player regardles of his talk. im sure hes an ok guy off the tbl and uses his mouth to put others on tilt Mike Vs. Ivey final 2 hopefully :)

a lot of you dont seem to remember the old adage "play the player, not the cards." the fact that so many dont like his style show how effective it can be

what was the hand he lost on

in 2004 wsop main event

Phil Ivey better run him tomorrow i am going to flip

iveys gone

You can all say what you want. Mike is a great player. His mouth is part of his game.

he is a millionaire

so he's a milionaire, guy's goin have a heart attack in 6 months

Boy I can't wait to see it on TV - first one gone from the final table - that ought to make the ratings soar

roflmao went in 4th but 1st to go, good he pisses me off.

Mikey listen,I hope you respond to this, because I know what you go through and I respect the hell out of you. You are a great player, that fact cannot be contested. But I feel like every tourney I play in I am in your shoes, getting sucked out on, with inferior players beating me. I am rooting for you this year, this is your tourney to win take it home for all the good players whose luck always faults them..........this is all u mikey....for all us good jewish boys take it home

Thank GOD, it's about time you will be able to settle up with cash, rather than sucking on old man dick to make good on your debt! Yeah!

Mike you're awesome! The fact that you can be so relaxed at the biggest final table ever is testament to your poker ability! You were made for no-limit! I feel your pain with bad beats! Hope it doesn't happen to you tomorrow!

Mikey is the man. Yeah, his antics last year at the WSOP main event were pretty sad, but you should hear what he said about Raymer getting knocked out yesterday when Raymer made an incredible read and lost on a bad beat: "Believe it or not, I'm a little upset at what happened to Raymer... that's just the sickest thing I ever heard. A guy works so hard to get so far to have a shot at defending his championship, and some idiot loses his mind and tries his hardest to go broke. I think that bothers me more than anything... How about throwing your hand away when you flop no pair and no draws? Does that ever come into your mind?" This was in reference to Aaron Kanter making a dumb play and sucking out on a 22% chance on the river after both players went all in after the turn. I really hope Matusow wins. I don't know if I could stand to watch another one of his blow ups.

Mike Matusow Wins The 2005 Wsop Main Event

Seriously, is he still on probation? What happens if he stays out all night, does he get in trouble? Was he raped in prison? Does anyone know?

hes guna finish top 3 in main event

he just won a cool million dollars in the 2005 main event. has anyone else on here done that?

Nice to see The Mouth win that much money ... Now he can get treated for his Big Balls problem, I hear they have Medication for that these days... maybe it will help with his inflated head too.

I have to admit that I found Mike's exit from the WSOP 2004 very amusing but you have to respect the guy for coming back this year and doing so well.It can't have been easy walkling back in to that room after everyone had seen you with tear stained cheeks,like a fat kid on sports day.

he should have won. that dork that won pretty much sucks

I love mike matusow, he's one of the biggest pokerstars out there. He's also got the bigges t mouth, wich I Respect. Noone puts a player on tilt, like mike. He's a poker God.Viva la Mike, and congrats on your 9th finish!

"Boy I can't wait to see it on TV - first one gone from the final table - that ought to make the ratings soar"yeah right. every other member of the final table was an absolute stiff except for the aussie. matusow didn't even blow up.

Yo mike has mad skill finishing at the final table this year was no easy accomplishment. Although he is annoying he, like phil hellmuth, is very entertaining, hope to see more of him soon.
