This is so cool. Is there anyway to send him best wishes on behalf of the forum?

Hahahaha! After today he's the chipleader! He's currently at 1.8mil, next closest is Lacay 211k behind him!

Read all about it!

Also, google "mcmatto" to read about his 400k win in the recent Pokerstars SCOOP games as well as other reads! He's been raking in the winnings!

And he already has a cash at this year's WSOP!

Matt Affleck

WSOP Cashes: 1

WSOP Earnings: $6,085

Tournament data:

Seven Card Razz (Event 44) 6/22/2009
$2,500 buy-in
Placed: 22nd
Pay-out: $6,085

Simply by making it into the money in the Main Event, he was guaranteed at least a 25k cash, but since he's chipleader, who knows! Maybe you guys can say that you played poker with the world champion!

I remember him from the early days, back when I had just became new to the forum. He seemed like a good player then but I just can't believe how much he has improved.

Damn I remember him and was wondering the other day about him - I remember him asking me to stake him in a PS game because he was broke.

I can remember everybody jumping in on him because he posted word for word from Super System as if they were his thoughts on strategy.

He can't be very good, because he thought that I was a good player and knew a lot.

Thats awesome to see. I vaguely remember playing him once in a THF game. Hopefully he does not forget us if he makes it big!

Yes if I remember correctly he was a bartender in Tennessee and his apartment burned down is the reason he said he was not heard from on THF.

He did very well in the THF games at the time.

You confuse him with Matro57. Matto never asked for a stake.
