Can you be this Nitty?

Discuss the Video

 

Mike The Mouth Matusow is well known for his verbal theatrics, bouts of nittiness and the inevitable blow-up somewhere down the line.

Whatever your opinion on Matusow, he's made some deep runs in the Main Event in recent years - 6th in 2001, 9th in 2005 and 30th in 2008.

This week's video discussion centres around his decision to fold a flopped queen-high flush in the early stages of the 2009 WSOP Main Event.
