Mike Matusow has launched a tirade at WSOP champion Jamie Gold. Matusow, who was in London for the European Poker Masters reacted angrily to Gold’s comment that he gave Cunningham ‘a lot more credit’ than he should have.

Matsusow said: ‘Jamie Gold can’t play his way out of a paper bag… All Allen had to do is win one pot against him and he would have won the tournament. He [Gold] is not a nice guy, I’ve heard very bad things about him. He’s very cocky and not paying the other guy the $6m is enough to tell you what the guy is.
