Every time i've logged into Full Tilt in the last couple of days, Matusow has been there, putting in long hours in the 25/50NL game, often on 2 or 3 tables at once. Anybody have any idea how he's been doing?

I have officially decided he is a High Stakes whale from what I have seen. I bet you never see him sitting at an empty table. This only goes for online.

Every time I've seen him, he's been up 1-4 buy-ins. Probably seen him online five different times in the last three days.
He's not allowed to buy-in over the table max, right? So, he's making some money at least. Juanda has been on a bit in the last couple days too. |

ive seen him blow through 100k in less than 4 hrs one morning a little while agao at the bellagio and leave empty handed.
The very night before he also took a big hit playing 400-800 ceasars big game. All the while he was basking in the attention of other people and players recognizing him and requesting autographs, and getting the celebrity treatment. Discipline or knowing when to walk away didnt seem to be his strength. But then, when u are a poker celebrity and receive all this attention, how would it look if you went down in limits or didnt take on the best in any given room....too much pride and ego at stake to change. |

Dropping 12 buyins and then making 2 back does not mean you're making money.

I play in the Full Tilt games with Mike. He just started playing again this past week.
About 2-3 months ago he would play some 25/50 and he would just get destroyed. He was just a complete donk. This past week he has been playing much better and I he is definitely winning now. But his wins recently are no where close to making up for the overall loses I have seen him have. |

hes obviously playing while tilting/losing his focus, and exercising terrible game selection
he understands the game instincitively very very well, but he doesnt know ANY of the math behind the game and is basically a moron with a great poker sense how could he NOT dominate or be dominated? he has no fundamentals to fall back on, only his feel when his feel is dead, hes the biggest fish in the pond ;-) btw mark this post, this is the effect of a little mj in the morning when you walk your dog ;-) |

Mike seems to have a lot in common with Stu Ungar:
1. Great tournment player 2. terrible cash game player 3. Jewish 4. likes coke |
