Poker in the Days of Coronavirus, Matusow Responds to 'Sick' Tweets

Poker is back!  With social distancing of course.

Games are limited to five players instead of the normal nine or 10, and masks and hand sanitizer are prevalent throughout the rooms. However, other than dealing with the new safety precautions, the players at the three Las Vegas casinos offering games Friday — the South Point, The Orleans and The Venetian — were focused on their hole cards instead of the world’s problems.

On Monday night, poker pro Mike "The Mouth" Matusow responded to those who say he's "too sick to be cured", most notable among them Kid Poker, Daniel Negreanu.

"Sickness is people who push their agenda & are afraid to debate issues!," Matusow tweeted back.

Directing his angst at Negreanu, Matusow added: "I love you buddy but debate me on issues instead of articles that are lies cause you dont agree with them! I'll destroy you on all issues im educated & not a media sheep!"

What's sick is not me! Sickness is people who push their agenda & are afraid to debate issues! @RealKidPoker I love you buddy but debate me on issues instead of articles that are lies cause you dont agree with them! I'll destroy you on all issues im educated & not a media sheep!

It wasn't just Negreanu who jumped all over Matusow.

Adam Schwartz referenced a video Matusow posted entitled "GEORGE FLOYD, RIOTS, & ANNONYMOUS EXPOSED AS DEEP STATE PSYOP FOR NWO!" and suggested that "The Mouth" was overmedicated.
