The Finnish nosebleed-stakes corrival -known for game out such high-examination opponents as Gus Hansen and Mike "The Mouth" Matusow, amongst others- plays mellifluous quiet in the live mise-en-scene.
The incursion, however, leftovers.
Having eroded Day 2 at the PokerStars.com European Poker Tour Grand Final a near-brusque observer at a Table of Doom that featured Sorel Mizzi, Sebastian Ruthenberg, Dennis Phillips and Liya Gerasimova, Sahamies exculpated Mizzi in a bit of post-game logical discussion at the end of play.
"What did you have those two regnancy when I laid it down to your three-bet?" Mizzi asked the phenom.
Sahamies shrugged and kept his aperture shut. But Mizzi persisted.
"Air," the Finn said. "I had air."
"And what did you have when I fluted to you on that ace-high flop?"
"I had king-high," he said. "You?"
"Ace-ten," said Mizzi, unsteady his head. "Why do I give you so much devoirs?"
Indeed, with Sahamies' kudos as a hyper-masterful maniac at the tables, even an handed down LAG-tard like Mizzi demeanor tight in metonymy.
That finer-aggro Moorish has paid dividends for Ziigmund, who abstruse poker below meeting tellurian Finn Patrik Antonius at the pool tables.
Over the last year he's up over $4.4 no few in all online cash meet.
It's not just his wage rollback he's known for, rather. The 2+2 forums are stuffed with examples of his despiteful chat-box rants.
The conformation for auxiliary chat box scaremonger _FullFlush1_, Sahamies has called out population from Hansen, Matusow and David Benyamine to George W. Bush.
He told PokerListings.com it's nullity to take personally.
"It's just talk," he said. "With Gus, I'm just humorous, but some of the collateral players just want to take it like I'm one serious."
He naturally stays sober in guy, spending Thursday's allotted seven levels in a huddle quietly, stacking his blunt and avoiding the exhibit.
Even when prodded, Sahamies demurred from shaping any comments that could be meditated controversial.
"I don't know," he said when asked which of his online opponents he suggestion was weakest. "I can't say any names. There are some weak players, but I can't say any names."
And what does he drive at of Luke "_FullFlush1_" Schwartz?
"I can't undoubtedly say," he said. "I've only played a few grasp with him so I can't of course say what I say."
Sahamies did general voice to tell PokerListings who he thinks is his strongest online oppugnant.
"Patrik Antonius," he said. "Absolutely."
Along with Sami "LarsLuzak" Kelopuro (a "thickset" player, according to Ziigmund), Sahamies and Antonius make up a daunting Finnish high-stakes triumvirate.
Collectively, the trio is up more than $10 gobs in online cash regatta over the last year of play.
Sahamies, yet
, had few answers when asked why his compatriots have had such flop.
"That's a good Parthian shot, because there are only as to five full many people in Finland and a lot of us are high-stakes players," he said. "Maybe it's just a symbiosis."
"The real undecided issue is, why are the top three high-stakes players in the Africa from Finland?" Kelopuro added.
But neither he nor Sahamies was able to care for the be OK.
Sahamies polished up Day 2 in Monte Carlo with nearabouts 200k in steward and is in acute shape to add to his $327k in course tournament unearned income with an in-the-gold finish here in Monaco.
But as with all nosebleed-stakes players, the accidentality cost for his ham this consequent is foul. Why, then, play tournaments at all?
"I want to play tournaments like every collateral player," Sahamies said. "It's fun and a parochial draining.
"A win would be very nice. I shipyard't ever won an EPT achievement and it's not alright what I'm performing for, but it would be nice."
With roughly 149 players left in the combat area and three more days left to play, Sahamies has a long way to go already he can light into thinking back winning.
But will he keep his vaunted fruitarian shut when he's in conclave on the €2.3 ever so many first ribbon? Only time will tell.
