What is the difference between two TSQL Joins?

I am wondering what the difference is between the following queries (using two different join syntaxes). I saw this in some code that was inherited, and I was curious if the result is always the same. And if not, why will you use one over the other.

Request # 1 Example:

SELECT * FROM TableA a
  INNER JOIN TableB b
    INNER JOIN TableC c
      ON b.TableBId = c.TableCId
     ON b.TableBId = a.TableAId

Request # 2 Example:

SELECT * FROM TableA a
  INNER JOIN TableB b
     ON b.TableBId = a.TableAId
  INNER JOIN TableC c
     ON b.TableBId = c.TableCId
