Another TV gem, a documentary about the life of Mike Matusow is coming

Article cover

It has been almost three decades since the name Mike Matusow has been recorded in the poker world. The American professional with the characteristic nickname "The Mouth" has 4 WSOP bracelets on his live tournament account, 110 cashouts in the WSOP series, and more than $10 million in live tournament winnings to his name.

The multiple nominee for the Poker Hall of Fame has really been through a lot, but his stories and causes have left people with a wide range of emotions. These will be further expanded by the upcoming documentary called MATUSOW, which has been taken care of by Big F production headed by Frank Zarrill for several years. Next year, they will release a documentary about the life of this poker legend, but the first shots already suggest that we have a lot to look forward to.

As the official trailer reveals, we have a lot to look forward to, as the producers take a deep look into the private life of this legend. In addition to stories from behind the poker tables, you can look forward to Mike's family and friends, there will be successes and failures, health problems, and strippers with whom Mike will willingly dance at the bar will also get space.

"A lot of people mistakenly believe that Mike is an evil, stupid, or unpleasant person," said producer Frank Zarrillo. “You couldn't be further from the truth, I've spent a lot of time with Mike in casinos, on family trips, at the doctor's, and at restaurants and I've found him to be a generous guy who always tells the truth. I can't think of a better choice for a poker documentary than a man who doesn't care what others think of him. No matter what, Mike always speaks his mind, which is unique about him."

“I can assure you that although I love the whole process of creation, it is not an easy task. Making a feature film that includes the biggest names in poker, you can be sure that everyone will be watching and criticizing you. Nevertheless, I love the whole process, I put all my time, effort and patience into it, and I believe that very soon we will present to you the best poker documentary ever made.”

The documentary is expected to be full of the biggest names in poker, and Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu and Shaun Deeb will definitely get a spot there. According to available information, the documentary will be released next year, what do you think about it according to the trailer? What is your opinion on this controversial figure?
