Ultra-successful amateur Mike Baxter takes on Elezra early on in this episode of HSP with a pot of $170k on the line. And Daniel ‘Kid Poker’ Negreanu challenges Farha to a 500000 Omaha High Freeze Out…will Samhi take the action? Well he WILL take the action when he goes up against Hellmuth twice in two gigantic six-figure pots.

    Hellmuth neglects to tell everybody he subsequently lost ~$100,000 with 7-2 later in the same game.

    I love Farha, I don’t care if he’s playing well or not, winning or losing, he’s enjoyable to watch!

    Love how u made somebody write that for you. Keep the Inteligent tete-a-tete going. Or not.

  • 1 February 201211:39 am Yamakashi1

    Yeah, i enjoy it. A lot.


    I got a lil offensive ,cos u were the one not listening. Maybe you had a point somewhere ,but you hid it between lines of senselessness. You didnt realize it ,but i did say i fukin really enjoy sammy as a player, watchin him, his plays. BUT – HERE – He – does NOT – play his best.

    Ok ,we’re goin trough the same here again.

    The Bush thing cant offend me sinse i too am not an american. And yeah im arrogant ,but there’s nothing here i can learn.

  • 1 February 201212:32 pm Oegaboega12

    No need to get defensive…..or perhaps offensive is the better word.

    I too enjoyed this little verbal tete-a-tete , but since you started calling people (or more speceifically, myself) a moron, I shall not debase myself to your level.
    Btw, hooded friend, don’t criticize Sammy, he’s way out of your league…I have tried to explain but your arrogance prevents you to learn….I advice to change your ways…you are like George Bush, stupid and unwilling to learn….

  • 1 February 20121:14 pm Yamakashi1

    Ok… I ADMIT IT. You’re WAY classy. Language-wise.

    You end a sentence with “and he . ”

    And you’ve got great poker insight, we the suckers ,who are readin your great reads on sammy should all be paying you for the service.

    “He does this because he wants to bluff”
    Ok, he bluffs because he wants to bluff, and he’s a “true gambler”. Ok ,you know what – yes, you are a MORON. But i love it, keep the good stuff coming.

  • 1 February 20121:55 pm Oegaboega12

    I hope you can overcome this language barrier….if not I will try to simplify it….My advice to you, listen to smarter people and try to play poker yourself. You will find it not so easy when u cant see the other guy’s cards…And if I appear to be slightly patronising….that’s intentional. You will find that bluffing is an essential part of the game.

  • 1 February 20122:01 pm Oegaboega12

    There is no language barrier at all, except that mine is classy and yours is not. It is you who doesnt understand….Sammy plays looser than most because he’s a true gambler, and he likes action play a lot of pots and he . He does this because he wants to bluff, sometimes his bluff gets called and then someone like Yamakashi1 will say; ” What a stupid bet, he didnt have anything!” But if he hardly ever bluffed, then he will not get called if he does have the nuts.

    Looking for a good poker site? Full Tilt has a wide representation of pros, like Howard Lederer and Tom *Durr* Dwan, and also alot of bad players at the lower limits. Use the bonus code Znpoker for a 100% bonus on your first deposit, up to 600$. Bonus is cashed out according to 44% of the rake.

  • 1 February 20122:41 pm Yamakashi1

    There is a language barrier here i’m thinking.

    So im gonna say it again – I really really really… like Sam, but he’s wreckless here. MAYBE it’s a strategy , but it doesn’t work here.

    So if i see something different in the next episodes im gonna tell you, but i dun think this strategy is something that in the long term is gonna do it for sammy, he’s bluffin like 5 out of 6 hands he’s been dealt.

  • 1 February 20123:11 pm Yamakashi1

    “it must be working out for him”
    “him wearing nice suits and all”

    Yeah…. whatever you say, proffesor.


    The big picture is – i respect him for his poker skills – NOT IN THIS VIDEO. That’s not his best. Ok? Do you get it? Should i explain it again?

    MORON is on the tip of my tounge here, but im not gonna do it. I respect people’s opinions, unless they’re utterly stupid like urs is now. Cos i explained to you everything about this situation.

  • 1 February 20123:52 pm Oegaboega12

    Well

    Dont express your opinions so strongly and absolutely and then be surprised when someone react the same way. Sammy has a specific style that may lead to him losing a few (big) pots here and there but on the whole it must be working out for him. After all, he must have made a lot of  money, him wearing nice suits and all 🙂
    You simply cant say: ‘Oh he lost money on that pot, he played badly” Thats too easy, you must look at the bigger picture….

  • 1 February 20124:17 pm Yamakashi1

    Well

    Don’t patronize me, you dun no me.

    I like people that come to me with respect…

    Anyways – i LIKE Sammy, i liked how he played in the first seasons ,but now he’s just not making sense ,hes just there to gamble.

    And yeah, i agree that he’s almost like setting a trap for that “amateur” who actually makes the pros look funny, but i dun think that he’ll go for it and what kind of a strategy is that anyway. Its wreckless.

    Im gonna continue watchin this show till the 5th season, we’ll see.

  • 1 February 20124:25 pm Oegaboega12

    You should become pro, clearly u would win any game against Sammy and he’s one of the best….Whats with all these guy -who see the cards btw!- that they think they are better than these guys who made millions. Have some respect, if Sammy appears a gambler its not because he wants to lose the small pots, it’s because he wants to win the big pots when he actually has a monster! Maybe with practise u’ll learn this trick too.

  • 1 February 20125:09 pm Yamakashi1

    hes not unpredictable ,hes TOO predictable, im almost sure baxter knew he was on a draw, thats why he called after seing the turn and thats why sammy’s decision bettin in the dark was a dead give away AND a BAD ONE.

  • 1 February 20125:25 pm Yamakashi1

    win a lot or loose a lot sounds like a loosing strategy and actually i dun really think he played it well especially here… its … semi-bad, and he shouldn’ve bet in the dark and he knew he was getting called by baxter

  • 1 February 20126:21 pm Yamakashi1

    fuckin edited beginning…. weird

    somebody fix the end too

  • 1 February 20127:01 pm Yamakashi1

    daniels a vegan?

    sammy fucked up real bad against baxter, but ok he had outs

  • 1 February 20127:03 pm Royderode

    It seems alot of people are annoyed by Hellmuth and his big mouth

    Don’t you realise that that’s exactly what he wants
    His “I’m the best” speeches piss off alot of people he plays with
    And he is probably hoping other players will make “emotional” moves against him

    I’m also guessing that only a small part of his “steaming” is actual steaming
    The rest is acting

    Like him or don’t like him
    But you don’t get 11 bracelets and make a living out of poker like he does by being a bad player

  • 1 February 20127:28 pm AdolfNewton

    jamie gold keeps bluffing his money that why he lost so much in HSP season 4

  • 1 February 20127:29 pm CarlLewenski

    21:50 (Sammy Farha Interview)

  • 1 February 20127:58 pm 10crow
