Matusow Shows Up Late, Off To Good Start

Mike "The Mouth" Matusow

Mike "The Mouth" Matusow arrived slightly late to the start of play today and is playing at the Bluff featured table. As usual, Mike hasn't stopped talking since he arrived.

Mike was involved in a hand against a single opponent who led out preflop for 300. Mike called and the flop was {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Both players checked and the turn was the {7-Spades}. Mike led out for 600 after his opponent checked. His opponent called and the river brought the {A-Spades}. Mike made it 1,100 to go and his opponent folded.

Between hands, Matusow has been rambling on about a poker player he knows that tends to rap while playing.

"Poker is fun, for everyone, except my opponent, who's on crack!" Matusow mocked. "You could compare his rap career to my swimsuit modeling career."

Ironic, that a man known famously for never being quiet at the poker table, is taking jabs at another player's chatter.
