Who would love to see me and @shaundeeb play a heads up match for a $1,000,000?!
25 Jul 2025
I got our heads up table ready PLO/NLH. $1,000,000 a man. Offer is still on the table! I’m sure @PokerGO would give us a platform to stream it on for the fans!

Won the $600 online bracelet for a buck 25. Does it feel like a real bracelet? No. Did I need the money? Yes!

Heavens to Betsy
It can happen to the best of us, but note legendary tournament player Matthew “Bucky” Wantman was so locked in 50 left in the 2023 main he was casually playing with the cardboard brim protector still in tact for hours. Stone animal rating of course incalculable

I like what I’m seeing
🚨@25kfantasy ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 Our front office has decided to bury the hatchet after the shit-talking he gave us and name @MatthewWantman the #TeamWilson Captain Our options were cut him or give him the C 🤣 He wants it more than any man and will lead our team to victory!

Oops. Good thing I was trolling 🙃 Just like when I told everyone I was the worst value pick in the draft. My last names Wantman for crying out loud. How could I ever not want it the most ????
When a guy you drafted in the @25kfantasy doesn’t realize he’s sitting at the same table as the guy who owns the team that drafted him and says to the table he wants to punt the series because he hates the team he’s on 😂😂

I finally climbed Mt. @BinWeng88. This is special to me more than most accolades. This was a main goal of mine when I started playing tournaments 4 years ago. Not many people in poker know my early life was very difficult. My father was in prison most of my childhood and my mother was an alcohol/drug addict who I only got to meet twice before she passed away when I was 17. There was a lot of points in my teenage years where I was close to prison/death, statistically speaking that was the path most in my situation end up taking. When I found tournament poker the beauty of it to me was that no matter how rich or poor or what background you come from we all start with the same stack and have to fight the same field to win. I always said no one will ever beat me if that's the case. People always ask me what do I do different that makes me win and there's no answer. I'm a product of my environment, all the things that I went through molded me into the player/man I am today. Diamonds are made from pressure, and the pressure I felt as a child I don't wish on my worst enemy, but it's the reason I am where i am today. #MambaMentality
