i usually save my comments and prefer to lurk, especially in these type of pissing contest threads, but seriously why does everyone swing from aba's dick whenever these threads get started? i'm sure i'll get flamed but i don't really care, he is an excellent poker player, and one of the top 2 or 3 best online cash players in the world, but why would u guys think he has any edge over sammy in a live setting especially in PLO which is sammy's strongest game? is it impossible for someone other than aba and antonius to have an edge in a game? sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due, and if the high stakes regulars find it hard playing sammy in PLO i'm sure that aba will have a harder time than they do, for a number of reasons the most important of which is that sammy is a live poker player and not an online player and no matter what anybody says, it changes the game when u go from online to live no matter how good you are you will be giving away things that you never would online, therefore giving the edge to ur more experienced opponent, its simple logic...

AMEN.

I'd put my bankroll on Sammy winning this.

Even if it was just NLHE, I'd still say Sammy wins. He is NO WHERE near as bad as you guys seem to think on NLHE. Where are you getting this from? TV play? Ridiculous, its TV, you try to have an image.

Sammy will outplay Townsend 9/10.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think you guys bring up some good points. I think if Sammy wins, he should give Bryan a rematch online. Let them play 2500 hands hold'em and 2500 hands omaha.

But I think Bryan is a little over his head here and he should be a little wiser. Sammy has the home court advantage.

Lol, does anyone in here actually no what they are talking about? About half say Sammy has the huge edge because of PLO, and half says Brian is actually better than him at PLO.

I'm just glad we have came to a consensus. It appears at least one of the players in this heads up match will have an advantage.

Because we believe Barry G would never have a reason to say Sammy was the top PLO player in the world if that wasn't actually truth.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, retards believe that. If you ask me about any player I play live with regularly after I mention them in a post on 2+2 I will reply with things like "they do this a little too much but they do this well" because I do not want them to feel bad and think that I am out to get them. If the same person asked me the same question about that player in a private setting in real life they would get a completely different answer.

Am I being leveled here?

Oops, I was bound to get leveled in a thread absolutely dripping with legitimate retardation. At least I haven't fallen for a rickroll yet today as far as I recall.

It's threads like these that make me wonder "why the [censored] do I browse NVG"

All you morons with 600 posts, that seem to have sweated Sammy throughout his poker career come off ass total morons. Why cant you ppl just accept the fact that you don't know [censored] about the situation, and admit it?

so crazy how he comes of so calm and collected after losing 500k- especially seeing as he probably took some bad beats along the way. I guess its all relative to his wealth and stakes but still its half a million!

[/ QUOTE ]

Probably because he's licking his chops to get to play more?

Worrying about the $500k is results oriented.

if any1 is seriously confused as to who they think has an edge- consider this:

the only people whod actually have any clue as to how sammy ACTUALLY plays (or the ppl who hav a clue about high stakes in general and have seen sammy not just from HSP/wsop episodes), have all stated aba has a huge edge.

i understand that speculating is in peoples nature. but why are there ppl claiming sammy is a massive favorite HU Live PLO? lol. aba has a lot more hands behind his belt and sammys tilt/way-too-loose factor is through the roof, especially relative to brians.

this is all without mentioning brians VAAASTLY superior HU NLHE game. live tells are overrated and i doubt they will have any real signifance in this match.

this isnt to say sammy couldnt win a ton here. hes a fearsome hu player in the sense that if he runs well and is on top of his game he could easily run brian over for a few sessions.

but in ther long run brian always > sam

everyone has turned BG's stated opinion into gospel yet almost no one really has any gauge on Farha's actual PLO skill level. who even knows how good Barry is at PLO...i mean it's not known for being one of his stronger games or anything so what does his opinion really mean?
