Prop bet : Matusow have a difficulty in paying
Everyone may remember the stupid bet between the two poker players Mike Matusow and Ted Forest on weight loss. As a reminder, each kilogram lost is estimated at 90,909 dollars and has turned to the advantage of the latter. Indeed, in a period of two and a half months, more precisely from May 5th to July 15th, 2010, Ted Forest tried everything to get rid of 22 pounds required by the clause between the two friends. Recently, Mike "The Mouth" which recognized his mistake had just announced that he is unable to pay his due of $ 2 million and tried to find a compromise with Ted by paying $ 5,000 per month during the first 6 months and liquidate the rest of the staggering jackpot after the first 6 quarters if he would survive the health problems caused by the sacrifices made for the bet.
As a reminder, on July 13th, 2010, Ted Forrest arrived on stage at the Rio Pavilion room with Mike Matusow. At his weighing, Forrest has lost more than 22 kg because its weight decreased to 62.73 kg. Forrest thus won the bet and entitled to pocket the promised prize, worth two million dollars. However, the poker player clearly specified that he wasn't motivated by money at stake but only wanted to prove a relation that with brave heart, nothing is impossible. A good cause and a defy to prove to everyone in short.
