"They'll never bubble me. I'll just ante myself in!"
"I forgot you're rich and have money while I'm broke!"
"You've never had it tough kid. Try grinding $40/$80 just to pay rent!"
This was just a few of the key quotes during Mike "The Mouth" Matusow's conversation to Justin "BoostedJ" Smith in relation to a few events that Smith has bubbled.
Eli Elezra called us over to let us know some inside information on a last-longer bet he has in place with Mike Matusow. The bet is for $10,000, but if the player that lasts the longest makes the money, it's for $20,000. There is also a little more to the bet than just money, and as far as we're concerned is the best part of the bet.
Whoever loses, must shave their head. We're not talking just buzzing all your hair off either, we're talking "with a razor," as Elezra put it. This is going to be one heck of a sweat for both players and we'll keep you updated on the progress of it.
As it stands right now, Matusow has about 32,000 to Elezra's 22,000.
