Now you can relive it 24hrs a day for free.

I think Sammy's decision came down to this, I am 4 to 1 to make $180,00.

As a true gambler, as a true risk taker, it was never "I'm 4 to 1 to lose $180,000" it was 4 to 1 to make $180,000.

classic dialogue:

Farha: want two flops, 5 & 5?
Greenstein: no

(Kh 8h 6c on flop)

Farha: what are we gonna do now, wanna deal twice?
Greenstein: no

Farha: no? let's do it, let's go.

I think I could live with myself if I said 'yes' to the 2nd deal and then lost it anyways.

Farha is a pretty good player, as watching the high stakes poker, he trys to gamble alot. one thing that is pretty annoying about him is when he takes 5mins to fold. as skeeky called out, he'll count all his chips 1-3 times talk talk and finally fold.

but yea, Greenstein is just a goldfish in a tank full of parannas.. he doesnt look comfortable playing with those guys, almost feel bad for him.

That's crazy talk! Greenstein is one of the most success cash players around - don't judge him by his weird looks and eerie calm demeanor. I'm sure he feels right at home with the others.

Greenstein won the Kansas City Lowball event at the WSOP. That tournament is arguably the most difficult tournament to win.

Greenstein, a goldfish? eek....

im talking About him being on high stakes poker, not about his sucess in gernal.

players on HSP are bluffing him, and he has even expressed frustartion looks on the show.

What's the scoop with the show? i don't get it on my cable programming and don't know much about it. Just seemed odd that there were still a bunch of people in and it's the last hand of the night...just wondering what the format is.
thanks - m

Greenstein just isn't a gambler like the other Vegas guys. He doesn't play frogger for $50,000 on a slow Tuesday and he won't bet on the length of time between red lights.

Greenstein began playing High Stakes to make money, not to have fun.

re: Diamond----it's NLHE, $100,000 minimum buy-in and there's no cap. You could buy in for $5 million if you wanted to. $300/600 blinds with $100 ante

since it's all millionaires, they have straddles, dark bets, they'll run two flops...they play out the river when everyone has folded. it's like a home game but if your home game was all entrepeneurs, doctors and card sharks.
