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 [...]
I was watching the 2009 edition of the National Heads-Up Championship by GoDaddy.com on NBC, and I was so impressed by Sam Farha in his match against Peter Eastgate. Not only did he play a relatively conservative game against a much more aggressive than expected Eastgate – admitting afterwards that he got the cards, and [...]
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:

I got a new shipment of Sammy T-shirts a couple weeks ago but haven’t gotten around posting them here yet… Here’s the first batch — the others are in the laundry…

“You have to gamble to win, right?”
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 holding [...]
More Sammy merchandise, this time a very slick black T-shirt I got from the samfarha.com site. It’s actually very good quality — been washed a couple times and still fits like it should. I’m not in as good a shape I would want to be but the Large is perfect.
I’ve had great response from this [...]
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 [...]
