Sam Farha not in High Stakes Poker Season 6

Bert — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 16:46:46 +0000

We just got word from our connections within GSN that Sammy Farha will NOT, I repeat, NOT be playing in High Stakes Poker Season 6. I feel pretty bad about the news, as obviously Sam is great for the show, but I suppose he has his reasons not to play in this very juicy new season of the best cash game poker available on the internet.

Players we will be seeing include Tom Dwan, Patrik Antonius, Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hansen, David Benyamine, Doyle Brunson, Phil Hellmuth Jr., Eli Elezra and Mike Matusow…

Here’s a preview from Cardplayer TV via Walking Back to Houston.

Still can’t wait for the show to air in February, though.

We’ve lost some data…

I feel sick. You may have noticed our server was hacked a couple weeks ago — and now that we’ve found the full extent of the disaster we found quite a lot of missing photos…

We won’t be able to save them, so some of the old post won’t have pics in them… I’ll try to find backups of those I still have on my PC and add them where possible…

Sorry!

Sam Farha: Chips Happen Mug ^^

Yay, it’s arrived! My brand new coffee mug will surely be an attention-grabber at work — seeing as poker isn’t as big here as it is in the US… People will mistake my Sammy-mug for some sort of new-wave nostalgia — but I’m so ready to explain.

My coffee just got better. ^^ (get yours at samfarha.com)

Anything But Giving Up

I’ve been getting more and more response on the site — more people are letting me know they think this website is not just my quest, but also a nice tribute to Sammy.

I’ll be working hard to add more videos, more content and more links — to really turn this into a Sam Farha tribute too!

In the mean time, I’m OBVIOUSLY not giving up on my quest to go gambling with Sammy. Giving up never helped anyone.

A Dead End…

Bert — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 05:19:23 +0000

One of the e-mails I got off one of the visitors of this (ever growing hehe) website is starting to look like a dead end. Too bad, as I really was hoping it could help bring this website to Sammy’s attention.

Anyway — with Christmas coming up I’ll probably be offline for some time, BUT: I’ll be back trying to convince Mr. Farha when the new year starts. Wish me luck!

Still working hard — still no results

Bert — Sun, 09 Dec 2007 05:26:04 +0000

I’m not giving up, but I still have no real progress to notify you of. It’s all going relatively slow, but I’m still positive and I’m still hoping this’ll go down one day…

I’ll keep you posted of any news I have! Thanks for the support — there are more and more sites linking in to Please Mr. Farha, and that’s a good start!

Good News from the PR Department

Bert — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 05:07:40 +0000

Excellent news from the PR department! More and more websites are starting to link to pleasemrfarha.com — which pretty much means more and more people are finding their way to this website too. It’s still tough to get people here — but it’s looking good!

I’m still extremely positive, by the way. Still hoping Sammy finds out about the site soon, and still hoping for a positive response!

I’ll keep you posted in the mean time, hehe.

Slowly but Surely…

Bert — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 05:04:06 +0000

I’m not giving up, obviously. I’ll keep repeating that. Count on me being here next year, trying to meet Sammy, even if by then I’m still just reaching a couple of people each day. Still though, we are constantly reaching a little more….

Last week was a new record high visitor count, and we seem to be raisy daisying the bar a little each week. Great! If you’re here, leave a message, it’s great to get feedback (and help, off course! LINK TO ME!!!!)

We’re making progress :)

Bert — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 05:24:15 +0000

Okay, so there is some progress! It’s all still on “a friend of a friend” level, but it’s moving, and that’s obviously what I was hoping for… In the mean time, I’m anticipating…

Sammy: I’m getting closer!

At Least Google is Picking us Up

Bert — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 04:50:51 +0000

Alright, it seems like we’re still a long way from Vegas. Too bad — but obviously I’m not even thinking about giving up…

In the mean time though, people ARE finding their way to the website — through google! Search terms as “Bob Safai”, “Sam Farha” and “Raisy Daisy” seem to be scoring best….

Let’s hope “SAM FARHA MEETS BERT” is amongst those soon!
