Forty-five days after disappearing without a trace, poker pro Matt Marafioti resurfaced on Monday, August 1st under a cloud of questions.

Marafioti, who rose to prominence as high-stakes online poker pro “ADZ124” during the pre-Black Friday era, posted videos to both his YouTube and Twitter accounts addressing the recent rumors regarding his whereabouts.

While the YouTube video (WATCH BELOW), which spanned nearly 17 minutes, touched on a variety of wide-ranging subjects – including Toronto rapper Drake, the Mafia, and the Illuminati – Marafioti’s message on Twitter was much more direct:

I am one hundred percent completely safe, and have been since leaving Toronto. I am doing nothing but enjoying my summer, but haven’t been on social media for a while because I was camping. And I didn’t realize that after three weeks people would already be looking for me, claiming I have this severe mental problem I don’t have.

I’m just having fun enjoying my summer in peace and quiet. Randy Dorfman is not my friend, for the record. So, I’m not really sure what he’s talking about, or why he’s concerning himself with my family affairs.

The need to clarify his physical and mental well being stems from a series of tweets issued by veteran pro Randy Dorfman, who posted an alert via Twitter that Marafioti had been missing since June 16th.

The tweets from Dorfman, which were posted on July 12th and have since been deleted, sounded the alarm, claiming that Marafioti’s parents had not heard from him in nearly a month, and they had requested Dorfman’s assistance in locating their son:
