IMHO Mike is very talented but for the general public, people that someone like me would like to see get involved in poker, he is bad for the game.

He's an ex felon that clearly has a problem with drugs and admittedly is a problem gambler with a serious problem. The childish trash that went on between he and the 'Shiek' I and many friends felt made the game look bad...this was supposed to be for the "World Championship". I for one, was embarrassed by it.

I would like to see Mikey get some serious help and try to show some class when playing..and bring himself to a another level.

IMO he's a greatly talented NLHE tournament player and away from the table very likeable.

Just my opinion, I wish him the best
