Mike “The Mouth” Matusow, one of the top professional poker players in the world (with over $10 million in tournament earnings) has become more than just a household name. He’s a favorite among the millions of television viewers who have come to count on his outrageously candid comments, emotional outbursts, and constant taunts that affirm the aptness of his nickname and make for great television theatre. Matusow’s life has been as much nightmare as it has been dream. His struggle with undiagnosed bipolar and ADHD disorders led to self-medication with illegal drugs, and a tumultuous descent in the Las Vegas gambling scene. The Mouth’s story is a high stakes rollercoaster ride featuring an insider’s view of some of the world’s largest poker tournaments, unbearable depression and suicidal tendencies, the Las Vegas party scene, rock star-like excess, outrageous antics, jail, and, in many ways, salvation.

Mike gears up for his trip to LA, previewing a Meetup Game at Hustler Casino on Sunday, March 2nd, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM, followed by streaming sessions next week (Monday and Thursday confirmed, Tuesday TBD). Fresh off an IV treatment that banished his pain, Mike’s feeling optimistic after clawing back $80K of a $98K Super Bowl week loss, sharing key hands and his strategy to keep the comeback rolling.
Beyond poker, Mike marvels at the Lakers’ defensive surge despite AD’s absence, with LeBron playing like he’s 25 again—hinting at a Clippers upset tonight. He also dives into the explosive Trump-Zelensky Oval Office clash, relaying insider Ukrainian perspectives from friend Eugene Katchalov, who slammed Zelensky’s antics while praising Trump’s push to end the war. Plus, callers spark debates on poker scandals (10-7 setup? Jack-4 cheating?), Keating’s epic 7-9 bluff, and Mike’s wild past—from Full Tilt millions to a near-fatal fentanyl scare.
