Matusow, who has won just shy of $7 million in live tournament play to date, has already collected three World Series of Poker bracelets. 

He has enjoyed some good luck of late, finishing third at the World Poker Tour Bay 101 Shooting Star No Limit Hold’em Championship back in March and the $369,600 that came with it. 

The WSOP website noted that Matusow was one of the most well known figures in the game when the poker boom hit.

You either loved or you hated his brash approach to the game, and you will be hard pressed to find a well known player who has been more up and over the past few years then Matusow. The Mouth has been relaitively quiet in recent years, and hasn't won a bracelet in four years, which also marks the last time he made a WSOP final table. He comes into today 4th in chips, and all the rail birds will have one eye on him.
