Please, Mr. Farha » Doyle Brunson http://pleasemrfarha.com My personal letter to Mr. Sam Farha Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:10:53 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= Sam Farha Cursed in Heads-Up Event http://pleasemrfarha.com/2008/03/07/sam-farha-cursed-in-heads-up-event/ http://pleasemrfarha.com/2008/03/07/sam-farha-cursed-in-heads-up-event/#comments Fri, 07 Mar 2008 04:52:21 +0000 Bert http://pleasemrfarha.com/?p=25 Sam Farha is unlucky in the NBC Heads-Up Championship. It’s amazing. He was drafted against Doyle “Dolly” Brunson, and was eliminated after an amazing run of bad luck…

Michael Craig wrote about it in his blog:

In fact, just after 2:50, Doyle moves all-in and Sam calls. It was Doyle’s FIFTH all-in of the match. Doyle has K-Q. Sam Farha, however, has A-Q. But Doyle catches a king on the turn and eliminates Sammy, who now seems cursed in this event.

Bleh suckouts, I bet Sammy was on DEAD TILT afterwards.

With the king high flush draw, he calls Patrick Antonius’ all-in, worth about $500k. Not only is that one of the most amazing calls I’ve seen with no pair (simply considering the numbers, obviously) — he actually has the best hand going in.

Patrick gets lucky when they run it 4 times, and the best hand ends up only taking 25% of the pot.

Too bad — but excellent poker by Sam Farha!
