Last dose of Matusow for WSOP 2009


Well, my WSOP 2009 has come to an end and left me sick as a dog.  I started feeling punky during the Ante Up for Africa tournament and went on a serious downslide since then. Stuffy nose, cough, headache. All around nasty cold. And to add insult to injury I got sick just as the Main Event was starting.  I went in to play on Sunday, day 1c, after considering if there was any real possibility that I would be significantly better for Day 1d on Monday. I determined the answer was no after waking up on Sunday morning and was obviously right since it is now Tuesday and I am still sick sick sick. The weird thing is I actually played really well on Sunday just ran into some ugly hands and by ugly I mean opponents calling raises with K6 and hitting 66 both times. In one case my opponent called a big reraise with the hand. Bleh. That is why I love the main event! The good news is that Joe is still in with over 65K in chips heading into his day 2 tomorrow. My brother also lived to fight till day 2 and Erik Seidel is currently hanging on by his finger nails playing Day 1a. Chris Ferguson is still in as well. Lots of people to still root for :-)

Sadly, Mike Matusows’s WSOP came to an end today as he got knocked out on day 2a. That is mainly sad because it means I won’t have another opportunity for a while to video him again. So as a parting gift, here is the last video I managed to capture of The Mouth before he headed off into the sunset. As an extra, you get a taste of Phil Hellmuth tilted by Matusow’s chicken wings. Yes, you heard that right. Chicken Wings.  Is there nothing that won’t tilt Mr. Hellmuth?
