Has anyone seen the latest twitter rankout war between Mike Dentale and Joe Mckeehan? Joe called him a cheater and Dentale replied back with a barrage of personal insults the likes of which you never seen, Joe ended up blocking Dentale but you can view most of Dentale verbal onslaught on his twitter page. Dentale got the better of the exchange in my opinion because Brooklyn born natives are relentless when it comes to telling it like it is

Dentale can be seen on one of the latest poker central cash games on youtube. Him and Jared Bleznik were at each others throats the whole session. With how short his temper is, I wouldnt be shocked if he was a roider.

On a recent cash game live stream he was co commentator with Dave Tuchman. 20 yrs ago he had a very bad beat at Borgata black jack table in which he was down 40k . The female dealer complained to the bit boss that he cursed at her . Security guy supposedly attempted to escort him out of casino. He told security dont put your hands on me. The guy made the mistake of doing just that and Dentale knocked him out with one punch. This according to Dentale. I tend to believe its true. Have to admit the man is entertaining

Idk if Joe was referring to this specifically but there was definitely an incident years ago at a Foxwoods cash game where Dentale did something pretty sketchy (got in a big pot, floor said they can't run it twice so they agreed to an off the table equity chop, Dentale won but never paid the other guy $2k) although most people blamed the person staking Dentale rather than Dentale himself.

Interesting that Joe specifically said "Protect your cards around him", makes me think it's something different.

Just curious but what stakes are these underground games that Mike plays? I assume he plays in these underground games rather than at borgata since its much much softer?

Nope. Mike flops the straight, OP has AA. Mike comes into the thread to defend himself and mod does IP check.

Mike Dentale is a self made multimillionaire who spent 8 years on Wall Street and has started multiple successful businesses. I know this because he said so on Twitter.

Also he buys shirts 1-2 sizes too small.

If a grown man is going to put so much effort and importance into "winning at life" versus other people then we might as well let the poor guy claim victory whenever he wants it.

On an unrelated note, Dentale happened to retweet an exchange between Matt Glantz and Scott Seiver with Glantz claiming Seiver is broke. Seems crazy given his tournament results, unless of course it's due to life leaks.
