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 back on us to RELEASE A MAYHEM OF A GAME once they do get it out.

They’ve tried to top the game every year, keeping the blinds ridiculously small, but as they’re is no cap it kept people coming. Sounds logical, but the players just counterfeited the baby-blinds by straddling (and double-straddling). Anyway, my guess is they’re going to at least have a Million-Dollar buy-in game, and they’re going to double the blinds, AND the antes.

We’ll see bigger pots, it’ll attract big pot players like Sammy, Daniel Negreanu, Jamie Gold or Eli Elezra, and it’ll be great TV.

GREAT TV. :D

I can’t wait.

I’ve had great response from this shirt in cardrooms too. :)

(the shirt was in a casino yesterday, so it needs a good washin’, haha)

Pretty sharp, right?

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.

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

Sammy looks so happy when he gets the call — I really do feel bad for ‘m. :)

“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 of it — or the worst of it. You can’t beat them. What goes around comes around.”

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. ;)

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!
