Mike Matusow battling on Twitter over markup debate

Mike Matusow shook poker Twitter yesterday when he posted a bet on "Stakestars" whether or not he can beat 1.3 (30%) markup at this year's WSOP:

"Atari Rob" then did a spreadsheet of Matusow's $10k+ event results since 2019, which admittedly isn't a huge sample:

The usual markup debates are also happening right now, with the usual "free market versus tricking dumb amateurs into paying too much" sides arguing with one another.

If you look at those WSOP results, he’s pretty good at limit events, not so much at pot limit and no limit.
