Mike Matusow is a poker player that can’t do math

Mike Matusow’s coronavirus mathematics

You don’t have to be a math genius to be a poker player, and that’s just as well for Mike Matusow, the infamous Mike The Mouth’s coronavirus calculations way off the mark this week…

 Decimal points and % calculations shouldn’t be too much of a reach for a poker legend who has $9.75million in live cashes to his name, along with 4 WSOP gold bracelets.

However, it was up to his fellow players to point out just how far off the mark Mike was…

Without wishing to get too political, Matusow’s most recent Twitter faux pas saw his recent past of coronavirus predictions and beliefs brought up…

Once the initial math situation was cleared up to everyone’s satisfaction, Mike was back again with another coronavirus numbers problem for his fans and followers.

This one didn’t go down too well either, the horribly-worded poll leading to confusion, as well as offending quite a few…

Mike was far from finished with his bad maths, however, yet another tweet where the numbers seemed to be way off the mark…

…this time a fan of the poker legend picking up on his horrible arithmetic, replying: ‘Ok. .000000001% of the 5B people in the world that are under age 50 is .05 of a single person.

He added: ‘Only 1/20th of a single person under 50 has died by your math. Impossible. #provenwrong hate to see a poker hero of mine intentionally mislead w numbers. Not worth bluffing on this.’

Further Mike Matusow Controversy

It’s not unusual for Matusow to take a contrary stance on Twitter, of course, and his Mike The Mouth podcast has been the only so far to host alleged cheat Mike Postle.

Matusow’s trainwreck interview saw Postle go virtually unchallenged on the serious cheating allegations.

Matusow himself claimed to have won 54 sessions in a row – which may be true or just more dodgy ‘Mike Matusow maths’.

Last year’s WSOP Player of the Year fiasco – which saw Daniel Negreanu proclaimed the winner before it was revealed that the wrong events had been counted – also saw Matusow involved.

Another Twitter war erupted, this time with Doug Polk, after the retired pro cast some serious aspersions against Negreanu…

The poker community has lost count of the number of times Matusow has been involved in bizarre arguments or situations, and unfortunately, we can’t rely on Mike’s own math skill to help us out.

The only thing we can be reasonably sure about is that the number will almost definitely increase, and soon.
