Mike Matusow Wins the TOC

It was just four months ago that Mike “The Mouth” Matusow finished in ninth place at the main event of the World Series of Poker; even though that was the worst finish, he still bagged $1 million for his efforts. When he came into the WSOP Tournament of Champions, he claimed to be playing the best poker of his life; he then went on to prove it, winning the TOC and claiming his second $1 million prize of 2005.

“Mike Matusow has once again proven that he’s more than just “The Mouth”", said Howard Lederer who, along with Mike, is a Team Full Tilt member. “His play over the past year clearly shows that his game is as good as anyone’s and that he’s a threat in any tournament he enters”.

Mike beat out 113 other players including legends Hoyt Corkins and Phil Hellmuth, who took third and second in the TOC.

RAINBOW - In flop games, a flop in which no two cards are of the same suit. "The flop was A 9 7 rainbow."
POT ODDS - The amount of money in the pot divided by the amount of money you must bet in order to call. Often used to determine if a pot offers enough reward to play on the come.
JOKER - A 53rd card in the deck, distinct from the others, used as a wild card or as a BUG.
