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. [...]
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 [...]
Looking at this hand just pains me. As a No-Limit Hold’em playe, these are the kind of situations you dread — flopping a set, making your full house, and being up against quads… No way Sammy can escape this hand — pure torture. Unlucky. Sammy looks so happy when he gets the call — I [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
This hand has been talked about so many times when Sammy and Phil Hellmuth meet. Phil still feels Sammy played this hand bad, I still feel Phil Hellmuth played this hand like a complete donkey and pretty much handed the hand over to Hellmuth. Obviously, Phil could have lost more by betting the flop, but [...]
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’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 [...]
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 [...]
