How come Farha seat on the first picture is different from last two pics? And how can he be "two seats to his left" on 2nd and 3rd (unless the action goes counter-clockwise?)

i've played with the "villian" in this hand a couple of times, and he's a major fish.

i'm sure that money will be recycled through the poker community and find its way back to sammy.

Default What goes around comes back around again times 10

Last April during the Bellagio tourney I post behind the button in a 25/50 NL holdem game and buy in for about 8 dimes.

I play a round when the following hand comes up in my SB.

Sammy open raises to 300 in early position, everyone folds to me and I call with wired 3's.

Flop comes down A,2,3 with 2 hearts.

I check, he overbets the pot for a dime.

I check raise to 3k straight, he says, "Ok, I'll put you all in."

I say, "Ok, I'll gamble with ya," and we put it all in the middle, he covers me easily with like 60k.

Turn comes another Ace, he says, "Ok, that's me," and the river comes 4 of hearts.

He tables, A2 off, I knuckle and never show.

Just another day, I take 2 flags out of my pocket and reload.

I guess he had it coming.

If you think he drives the action in NL holdem you should see him in PLO, I played 25/50 PLO and 50/100 NL Holdem/PLO with him and that game played so big it was sick.

In my opinion, PLO plays at least 3 times bigger than NL holdem.

Also on a side note, I think his PLO is a lot better than his NL holdem, which I think is weak. He seems so much more comfortable and control of things in PLO.
