The thing with Sammy is that he's a very particular player in that he wants things done a certain way, and especially so when he's losing and starts getting crabby.

The thing with the two guests behind him he was in the right with - in these games the hangers-on/sweaters (not just talking HSP now, but Bobby's Room, etc.) usually sit far away on couches/sofas/whatever or are sitting behind the one person they are sweating, and they also don't get directly involved with the action (i.e. guests here trying to sell insurance).

In this case someone else's sweaters were sitting right behind him, and he's cautious enough to know they could be trying to get a peak at his cards, disrupt him, anything.

Sammy may not seem it because he's throwing money around fishing it up but he's cautious that everything be on the up-and-up. Note when there's all-ins he wants all the chips/money pushed forward and be near the middle (note he wanted the mainpot/sidepot straightened out on the 3-way AI before the turn/river got dealt). He does this in regular side action as well.

Sammy flipping out because he "wasn't comfortable" is very reasonable.

And I know this because I know many (as well as myself) who have dealt to him. Just the way he is.

You should make a post at NVG about stuff that happened to you while dealing at bobby's room.
