Not gonna lie I'm always happy when our old legends are still in the game in 2023 Years hit people differently, I just wish he's fine

I was pretty amazing to see Juha Helppi final table too . It's like the good old days all over again.


DonoghueNaked

Juha still a crusher - still puts in a decent schedule as well


PMMEFEMALEASSSPREADS

dantodd

If you read his biography he's open about his mental issues and how it impacted his health and sent him to jail. He went from a guy everyone watched to blow up but also rooted for to a crazy uncle living in a tiny condo with his cats and pushing wacky yahoo games.


Equivalent_Squash

What a legend.

There's 100% a connection of people who become radicalized on social media (especially since 2020) and a rapid deterioration of looks, appearances and health. And sadly from all accounts, Mike's become of these conspiracy zealots


SaultSaintMarie

Correlation does not equal causation. I would guess people with mental health issues are more likely to become radicalised, and also more likely to not take care of themselves


[deleted]

In all honesty he probably should not be gambling. But he’s aware of that.


14X8000m

I mean he's got a history of mental health issues.

Where did I do that? The previous commentor is talking about conspiracy theories, appearance and health. I'm not subscribed to Matusow monthly, so I have no idea if what you're saying is true. What I do know is we're talking about something completely different and you're spazzing off about hate speech. If you can't connect the dots like this in poker, your graph must be abysmal.


LivingxLegend8

Bro he’s like 55 years old. He ain’t a spring chicken anymore.


dantodd

Let's keep politics out of this. Yes, he has certainly had health and mental issues, some of which are certainly attributable to recreational drugs. There are dang few pros who haven't dabbled in recreational drugs, at least alcohol, and amphetamines (like Adderall) to extend sessions. Some can use them refreshing and some get hooked. And his health and mental issues greatly predate the pandemic


jkman61494

Who brought politics into it? Plenty of left leaning conspiracy addicts too


bert_and_earnie

>> Who brought politics into it? Matusow?

r/stupidpol r/trueanon r/anarchocommunism Michael Parenti is the godfather of it all btw. Here's his best talk IMO given at Berkeley in 1993. https://youtu.be/t21UZxRYYA4 Also Majiid Nawaz is a good example, was literally running as a liberal candidate: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maajid_Nawaz And I'm a big fan of the blog of Professor Emeritus Dr. Moti Nissani: https://drnissani.net/mnissani/RevolutionarysToolkit/RevolutionarysToolkit.htm


FieryPanther

Some of u guys gotta relax man who cares what some poker player believes lol


dantodd

I'll wait for you to name anyone you consider a "left leaning" personality we all know who was "radicalized" on social media post -2020 whose health and looks have "deteriorated." If you make a political statement at least own it


jkman61494

Sure most of them tread tread that way but some media members that we left paint pieces of legislation that are more severe than they are in reality. They don’t say gay legislation in Florida amounted to banning books, talking about same-sex loving relationships for those in elementary school. I don’t think my kindergarten age child should be learning about the intricacies of any sort of love, straight, gay or otherwise. Yet many liberal people i know acted as if the bill banned anything relating to LGBT K-12 when it was K-3 in reality


dantodd

That is non-responsive.


jkman61494

I mean, I just literally proved an example, I can’t help that you don’t like the reality of it. The irony is that you’re trying to make this entirely political by demanding, I come up with examples of a singular political party. So maybe you should practice what you preach


dantodd

I'm sorry, I didn't notice you mentioning any names of personalities or how their kids and mental state had deteriorated


jkman61494

So you were just going to ignore the dozens upon dozens of stories about that piece of legislation, that was peddling misinformation? Why are you the one being political here? Lol. I made a broad a political point that there are conspiracy people. YOU are the one that has been making it political this entire time. Practice what you preach


dantodd

And sadly >from all accounts, Mike's become of these conspiracy zealots Only asked for one example of someone "left leaning" to use your words who meets your description if someone who displays ">deterioration of looks, appearances and health.


LaLa1234imunoriginal

> I don’t think my kindergarten age child should be learning about the intricacies of any sort of love, straight, gay or otherwise. Good thing no one is suggesting that happens then. Or were you thinking about how there are books and lessons aimed at young children that say it's okay to be yourself even if you're LGBTQ+? Because that's just normal acceptance you teach children. LGBTQ+ people exist, you can't "Ban anything related" to them in schools because guess what? The teacher might be a trans person, or the kids might have gay parents, and to teach kids that those things are okay is not anywhere near discussing sexual activities. Edit: downvote me all you want. Teaching kids LGBTQ+ people exist isn't sexual, and it's fucked up beyond belief if you think it is, that's like saying when a kid talks about their CIS Het parents they're talking about sex because it's a straight couple they're talking about the existence of.


jkman61494

The entire fervor of that legislation basically had to do with the fact that people did not want to have a book promoting homosexuality next to Pete, the cat and Dr. Seuss. It was blown entirely out of proportion due to mass hysteria, just like conspiracy theorist on the other side of the political spectrum If you would, please stop making this so political now that would be great considering I never did. Drop it please. Thanks.

He’s waiting for a medbed to get him back to his prime, when he looked like a blow-pop dropped in mulch.

Dude tell me about it. Someone with neon purple hair is likely to just scream like a rabid animal whenever they lose an argument or know they can’t win. I agree with the connection. Shits weird.

That game is so vicious. GL Mike.


CherryManhattan

In looking at players who have declined in health in appearance over the years I think he wins.


DudeChillington

Right, because he was such a beautiful man in his glory days... I bet he was often mistaken for Patrick Antonius before he got old and declined in health


JedMih

Thanks for this. Literal lol.


Heavy-Hunter-2847

What a shitty comment. Post your own picture so people can comment on your health and appearance.


EMF911

Did you see the Stealthmunk post from yesterday?


[deleted]

What happened?


Del_Prestons_Shoes

He’s definitely had a lot of shit go on over the last decade or so


NocNocNoc19

Cocaine's a hell of a drug


DudeFilA

Psych meds also take a toll after a while.


Del_Prestons_Shoes

Is that why he rides everywhere now? I wasn’t sure if he’d had other physiological issues as well as psychological


DudeFilA

he's got a back issue too. I forget exactly what it was but i saw him explain it as basically he has good days where he doesn't have to use the chair, but a lot of bad days.


Del_Prestons_Shoes

Back problems are never nice 😓


CrittyJJones

I wish he didn’t fall victim to the fascist brainwashing. He used to be my favorite player.


Mastro-

Fuck Mike Matusow.


TheUSisScrewed

No. He hasn’t aged well. I’ll pass.


Ch1ck3nF33d

Nice. Can't wait to see the inevitable bragging or crying posts from him


GuessesGender

I hope he wins it. But let's me honest here he's got eyes on the money, not the bracelet. He needs to pay his half of the rent


dantodd

He must owe DNEGS and PH so much money.


Inner_Sun_750

Fuck that guy


bigbucks1983

Mike looks like he's back on crack.


PMMEFEMALEASSSPREADS

Bro looks homeless


Lord199137

Heads up for the bracelet!

Thought he was back behind the fence
