Mike Matusow published a post on the X platform (Twitter) asking the general public if he should start a tutorial site to give his advice on Omaha Hi/Lo, Stud Hi/Lo or Mixed games. However, Matusow was decidedly not pleased with the result of the poll.
Should I open a teaching site on Omaha 8 tourneys and Stud 8 tourneys or even teach mix games?

Of course, Doug Polk, who never misses an opportunity to take shot at somebody, also stuck his nose into the whole situation. As I'm sure you can guess, Doug made fun of Matusow's research, or more accurately, Doug called the opening of a training site a crime.
Here we go
Mike got angry and immediately responded by calling for heads-up Omaha Hi/Lo or Stud Hi/Lo. Doug Polk didn't hesitate and immediately offered $1,000/$2,000 bets, his The Lodge Card Club, and challenged Matusow to pay $500,000 to make the heads-up official.

It looks like Mike is interested in the game, but the only problem may be that Mike doesn't want the game to be streamed online. He says he doesn't want everyone to see his style of play and for his style to be dissected by Doug later. However, some commenters have commented that Mike is being rather ridiculous, considering that he wants to start a training site to discuss his game. While Polk is an expert at heads-up play, he is new to Hi/Lo, unlike Matusow, who also has two gold bracelets in the discipline.
What do you think, will we see this duel?
