Matusow and the Sheik

Was watching some WSOP coverage from last year (I think) and Matusow and The Sheik were really tangling, on the felt and verbally. Is this really that big of a rivalry? They acted like they hated each other, especially Sheikhan toward Matusow. Then when Matusow busted Sheikhan they shook hands and acted like it was all cool. But before that I thought they might scrap on TV. Do these guys really hate each other or what?

It's a long rivalry that was made worse by Matusow shooting Sheiky in the leg at a private game.

Seriously, yes on both counts although 'alot' may be considered subjective compared to other monies Mikey receives.

Is Matusow in debt?

He once told me when I was giving him a hard time after a terrible bluff "blow up" he made online that "I have more money than you'll ever have in your entire life."
I said I doubt if I don't owe anyone money and btw I never cried on national tv b4.

Mike comes across as a guy who will borrow from peter to pay paul, and then square up everyone when he wins enough to do so, creating a perpetual debt. Watching him go from playing great to melting down is probably worth the investment to those that stake him.
