He plays a variety of poker related games, Euchre, Omaha,Stud  and likes to play Texas No limit Holdem

He used to play home games and on-line but now devotes his time to the ring game at the casino. His favorite poker room locally is at the Leelanau Sands

He plays in both the cash games and the tournaments and from personal experience, Matt plays both very well

You can always recognize Matt with his Spartan shirt, and his mp3 player. He likes to listen to hip hop,blues and jazz . He says it relaxes him and gets him in the ZONE.

His major complaint is the Bad Beat and his favorite player is Phil Ivey. As a matter of fact Matt plays and has the demeanor of Phil.

He does have some minor superstitions but won't tell what they are.

His favorite item he brings to the table is his Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl Four lighter  He LOVES those Chiefs.

His funniest and perhaps saddest story is he was so tired one night at the cash game he mucked  his winning flush after the river for no reason.

His goal in playing is to be the best he can and let others see it. Well Matt I have played alongside of you a few times and Guess What? I see it all to clearly.
