High Stakes Poker Season 7: Hoping for Sam Farha

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

We’re all eagerly awaiting High Stakes Poker Season 7, and we’re all hoping for the return of Sam Farha on the Golden Nugget felt. We’ve all come to love Sammy’s style, and we’ve all come to hate the standard clashes from the last two seasons. Come on GSN, STAKE SAMMY FARHA IF YOU HAVE TO [...]

Sam Farha not in High Stakes Poker Season 6

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

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 [...]

Farha plays what he gets…

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

I love this. Sammy makes a small flush on a board that had him drawing very thing, and when getting a comment on playing the nine six off suit for a $2,500 raise from Eli Elezra, he makes a classic Sammy-reply: “Buddy the game is on OK. Please don’t give me bad comments about the [...]

Pot Limit Omaha in High Stakes Poker Season 5

Monday, July 14th, 2008

Haha this is the best ever news IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD (OF POKER). Season 5 of High Stakes Poker will be featuring… Pot Limit Omaha in stead of No Limit Hold’em! Sammy will absolutely love this. HIS game, in HIS show. Ladies and gentlement — meet Sam Farha, future tv superstar extravaganza! Thanks [...]

Season 5 High Stakes Poker

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Okay so I read about half a year ago that Season 5 of High Stakes Poker would be starting…. March of April 2008. Now, today is June 2nd 2008, and guess what? No High Stakes Poker Season 5 yet… It got me thinking (and talking during our home game), and we decided that they’re probably [...]

Sammy Farha: “What goes around, comes around”

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Not the most exciting video from GSN I’ve seen, but worth a watch as you get a view of a somewhat nervous Sammy Farha before the game starts… “Sometimes we all make mistakes, we’re not geniusses. But there’s players that have your number. You will never beat them. Even if you have the best out [...]

Sammy’s King High $500k all-in move, with the best hand!

Tuesday, December 25th, 2007

Now this is where Sammy shows his gamble, and his instincts. 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 [...]

Sam Farha and Eli Elezra: Fireworks Poker

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

Eli Elezra talks about him and Sam Farha, both bluffing at a pot pre-flop. He also talks about the action that always enrolls when he and Sammy are at a table together. Eli talks about Sammy with a lot of respect. He doesn’t say “I like to play with Sammy” because Sammy is easy. No, [...]

Sam Farha Showing Class, Hellmuth Sucking Out

Sunday, October 7th, 2007

This vid shows Sammy at his best once again. His whole composure is just awesome, and Phil Hellmuth shows he’s still a brat. He does call out Sam’s hand, but oh well, that’s not rocket science.

Sam Farha Raisy Daisy’s In The Dark

Sunday, October 7th, 2007

This is how we all love Sammy. He plays the WHOLE HAND in the dark, and pretty much extracts the maximum from Bob Safai and Phil Hellmuth, who call the raise with inferior hands. Excellent example of Mr. Farha mixing it up!
