Usually ships in 1 business days | | | | | | Get Ready for a Wild Ride… Hang on tight as Mike “The Mouth” Matusow, poker player extraordinaire, takes you with him on a breathtaking, true-life roller coaster ride from his humble beginnings in a trailer park to a rock and roll lifestyle full of hot women, sex, wild drug-filled parties and million-dollar wins and losses. Yet behind the glamour and glory of his high-stakes poker career lurked the flip side: a person torn between two debilitating mental illnesses?—?bipolar disorder and ADHD. To dig himself out of depression and suicidal despair, Matusow turned to dangerous street drugs to self-medicate a problem he didn’t understand, and spiraled deeper into the darker world of addiction, police narcotic stings, and jail time. In this revealing and tumultuous autobiography, the combustible Matusow holds nothing back. You’ll get a mouthful of the man behind the infamous Matusow Meltdowns seen on national TV. Riveting, exhilarating, sexy, sometimes shocking and always fascinating, this voyeur’s look into the world of high-stakes poker, mental illness, and ultimately, Matusow’s inspiring redemption, will keep you glued to your seat until the very last page! | | | |

 Must Read! Aug 22, 2010
This is a must read for any poker players! Even non-poker players would enjoy this book. You learn so much about Mike, and I have a greater respect for the guy after reading this amazing book!
Go Mike. Aug 08, 2010
Mike did a great job on this book. Mike tells it all? He lets you know what it is like to be a pro poker player. He has a lot of problems with drugs. Mike covers so much in this book. He will keep your interest high the whole book. He will make you cry when you see how hard he has it in jail. How can anyone so smart have so many problems and do so well and so bad at the same time. He talks about his learning problems but shows moves that are brilliant. Mike is my hero. If you only buy one poker book, get this one. Even if you have never played poker you need this book.
The Poker Life Put Into Perspective Jun 27, 2010
This was a highly entertaining book of a man who has had his ups and downs. Drugs and high stakes poker. What more does one have to say? I read it quickly, and I'm a slow reader.
Mike Matusow: Check-Raising the Devil Jun 05, 2010
Couldn't put it down. I have watched Mike on TV in various tournaments and seen his blow ups ( TV's edited versions ) and had heard of
his troubles but WOW, what a story. Great book, a must read for any Poker player.
 Great book Jun 02, 2010
This book started off a bit slow for me, I have to admit, but that is probably because I already knew a few things about Mike Matusow. There was a lot I didnt know about him and thats when it got good. Im not going to get into detail but it is a great story about a well known poker player who had to deal with a lot of misfortune in life but also a lot of luck at the poker tables (and skill, of course). Buy it!
