First off I have a sick fascination towards this match. I think Aba has balls. But he did say he wouldn't be playing PLO heads up and there is no doubt that Sam is a quality player.

Also I think Sam won't be near as bad at heads up hold 'em as people think. The problem in a full ring game is that he gets involved in too much action, but someone almost always has the cards. But he's still good at reading the play.

I also think that people are putting too much emphasis on skill over such a short sample space. Brian was up $800k then lost $1.3 million.

Sure, there are reads. But if you're betting heavy in omaha, chances are you probably have a hand!

I think in the short term luck is going to be very important if the pots cross the million dollar mark tonight. If they get in 50 / 50 and someone takes down the million the psychological effects could hurt them badly and at $1k/$2k, anything could happen.

I hope Aba has set a limit for when he will quit. If he had a $1.3 million dollar downswing at the stakes last night what could happen at $1k/$2k? It could go either way, but I believe but if Sammy is playing with his own money and they're going to play for the next few nights, it's possible one of them will blow their entire roll.

I also think that while Sam might pick up some minor tells Aba will pick up some cracks in Farha's betting patterns that a lot of players wouldn't.

V interesting anyway.

I think they'll both walk away with a lot more respect for each other.
