    If you have been watching this season of High Stakes Poker, the replays of the 05 Main Event, and/or his "Mouthpiece" segments on Cardplayer.com, you know what I mean. This needs to happen, and I mean now. Especially if drugs are somehow involved. He is just too much.

    Last years TOC was best televised poker on TV ever and it had nothing to do with the game.

    I used to say this, I have since retracted. He gets overwhelming. You might be right in edited doses though.

    I think I could deal with him, edited, an hour a week. Especially if they gave him an interesting foil, like Erik Seidel... or perhaps an actual foil to stab Norman Chad to death with.

    That is a great idea. I think he is a riot. When he sang on high stakes poker "have i told you lately you all suck". He is a little arrogant, but great TV.

    he is good for the game. and as arrogant as he is at times.... he's the first one to say how much he sucks when he busts out. Or how much of a donk he is... or no matter how much he wins he always finds a way to go BUSTO!

    I just rewatched the '04 WSOP on DVD, and seeing Matusow cry like a baby is always a highlight.

    Damn, 9 left and he has more chips than the other 8 combined. This would be his first bracelet, correct?

    Apparently his 4 mil in chips was a Cardplayer glitch (this site really sucks this year). Now showing him 4th.

    He won the TOC last year... but im assuming because it only started with 125 guys give or take theres no bracelet awarded. Assumably invitation only or whatever the requirements were.

    Per the Hendon Mob, Matusow won the $3500 NL at the 99 WSOP and $5000 O8 at the 2002 WSOP.

    you are wrong, Tony G is the one deserving of a reality show, i'd pay good money to watch Tony G order a burger at a drive through, and even more to see how he responds if they get the order wrong, or shortchang ehim

    I don't think that that makes me wrong. Yes, Tony G deserves a show, as does Matusow. I think, however, that if Phil Hellmuth had one, it would rank as the most horrible atrocity network executives have ever unleashed on this world, and that does include "The War at Home".
