Does Anyone Really Respect Mike Matusow's Talk/Advice/Game?

If he'd quit doing the poop he might be better.

Mike don't do drugs...he blew up several times online if I remember correctly when anyone even suggested it. Anywhoos...I think he'd be great as a commentator, even if he sucks at playing.

I forgot about this thread, sorry.

Incidentally do you know who this petty Poo-bah is bagging on us (see "Matusaw")?

Mike did this series of videos with him, Todd Brunson and Dave Sklansky. They were in a sound proof booth watching a table of amatures play, hole cams and everything. Mike naturally fell into the role of commentator, narrating the action and predicting who was going to raise, who was going to fold, etc. Naturally, since this was a table full of donks & amatures, nobody did what Mike thought they would do.

Dave would then berate Mike for recommending a particular play when clearly (so far as Dave Sklansky was concerned) a differant play was correct.

And then, it would START. "That's not right." "Of course it is." "No one would play it that way." "Well, the math says..." "No one at THAT table is thinking about the math!!!"

I kept waiting for John Belushi to run in from off camera and yell "FOOD FIGHT!!!!!"

All the while, Todd Brunson just sat there. Didn't speak, didn't move, didn't even flinch.

So I totally agree. So long as they keep Dave Sklansky out of the room, Mike makes an excelent poker commentator. WAY better than Gabe Kaplan.

In probability theory and statistics, the variance of a random variable (or somewhat more precisely, of a probability distribution) is a measure of its statistical dispersion, indicating how its possible values are spread around the expected value.

Mike is a very nice guy. He has good advice regarding variance and downswings (believe it or not). He is a good hand reader. He does have a lot of leaks though, and he lacks self control.

He's +EV in most of the HSP episodes I've seen him on.
