In Episode 168, Mike Matusow dives into a rollercoaster poker week—down $61K, then clawing back to -$27K with epic hands (10-8 clubs vs. a brutal flush, Kings vs. a “misclick” 10-8). He previews Trump’s inauguration (moved indoors—credible threats or cold weather?), skips the $12.5K trip, and rants about NFL refs rigging games (Eagles to win it all?). Plus, crypto woes (Trump’s Melania coin tanked his Solana stash). Mike takes calls on his documentary, poker’s evolution, and conspiracy-fueled politics.
