Sammy, every time i watch the moneymaker bluff at the final table im like common sammy call call, even though i know how its gonna turn out, tuff play and he is like a statue, hard to read. good luck this year at the wsop

Dogma 06-07-04 06:00 PM

his game is the real deal.. classy man deserves the bracelet. but i dont think he cares that much about it

youngone 06-07-04 06:00 PM

Sammy is by far one of the better players out there today, his style of play is great and he is a rock hard player. I hope he wins the WSOP soon

highendbroker 06-07-04 06:00 PM

Dear Sam Farha, Are you married?

stanford 06-19-04 06:00 PM

he rocks i loved the way he made hellmuth look the pillock he was in in the wsop 2003

shiznit 06-20-04 06:00 PM

What about when Farha tried to get a read from Scotty Nguyen with a sorry ass smerk? Nguyen smerked right back and could have beat him playing blind. Nguyen and other top pros outplay this smelly jew all the time - dude plays too many hands.

What the--- No Sammy for 2004! Was really looking forward to seeing him play. Still love ya Sammy.

Out of all poker players i thought sammy would be ahead in the money lifetime. Then i heard the comment he made if he won the tittle in 03he would just break even lifetime. I was a little supprised. Oh another thing most WSOP split the pot more evenly behind the cameras. Sammy wanted it all. If he made the deal he would have got another half mill.

the truth 07-11-04 06:00 PM

this comment is for the moron comment above. farha would have broken even for the trip not lifetime and he didnt need to make a deal, hes a millionaire and has been for some time now, he only plays wsop tourneys and high stakes cash games.

Sammy Farha has the best image/look of any poker player. I may emulate him.

mo. 07-22-04 06:00 PM

sammy farha is the legend of all legends in the world of poker!

Hohum 07-24-04 06:00 PM

Tournaments... and especially big ones do require luck to win. However, the dead money term exists for a reason. If you don't know what you're doing you don't have any chance at all. The best player doesn't necessarily win but a competent one surely does.

Farha sucks at holdem 07-30-04 06:00 PM

Therefore I felt like I had about a 20% chance to win the whole thing with 45 players left. However, I was dismayed to find out that Sammy Farhad was drawn to my right at the beginning of day 4, not because I fear him at all (although I believe that he is the best pot limit Omaha player in the world), but because he is very-very reckless in no limit Hold'em (by the way, I love Sammy!). Although I expected Farhad to do more damage to himself then to the other great players, I did witness him take out Tony Dee on day 4, when Farhad played Q-J off suit very poorly.Tony had raised it in middle position with Q-10, and Sammy called with Q-J off suit (I hate his call here before the flop). After a flop of Qh-10h-3d, Tony bet out big, and Sammy called (his call here was OK). On fourth street the 6s came off, and now Tony bet out $40,000, and Sammy called (by now, even the spectators in the hand knew Tony had Q-J beat). At this point Sammy cannot beat any hand at all, and he has to know that Tony is going to bet his last $50,000 on the river if he has Q-J beat. I believe that this adds up to an easy fold for Sammy. However, a jack did hit on the river, and Tony bet his last $50,000, and Sammy called and won.This was a pretty brutal way for Tony to go out! Sammy would have only had about $170,000 left if he hadn't hit the jack on the river against Tony-assuming he called the river. In any case, I thought, "Whoa, I didn't like the way Sammy played that hand at all. He will come after me weak soon, and hopefully give me a bunch of chips."

Farha sucks at holdem 07-30-04 06:00 PM

That writing above is from philhellmuth.com showing all you farha fans he just got lucky to make it. but he is a great PL omaha player

michael 08-01-04 06:00 PM

farha is a stud, but clearly he is not at the top of the hold 'em world

smash 08-08-04 06:00 PM

great poker player and looks like one 2

stevo 08-11-04 06:00 PM

Althought Sammy hasnt won that much and isnt known that well compared to others, he is a pretty good player and what i like about him the most is that he is difficult to read at times.

haffe 08-14-04 06:00 PM

isnt Sam farha half irani too??

Haffe 08-14-04 06:00 PM

I think Sam farha is one of the best poker players out there, because he is very smart, and he has a great pokerface.No one can read him, and he always takes the same time even if he is bluffing or not. Everyone says that he bluffs alot. But Sammy farha doesnt only think of the money, when he plays tournaments he want to play holdem not to play tight like everyone thinks he should do. Thats the different with him, He had fun the whole week in WSOP 2003 and came second. I think that is very strong of him. And Hes Looks doesnt make him a bader pokerplayer if you know what I mean :) He looks like a maffia typ of guy :) and He seems very generous, you must have a personality in Poker, like any other sports..

Holdem 08-15-04 06:00 PM

Very skilled player.. he plays almost every hand though.. but still very hard to read

poker kid 442 08-15-04 06:00 PM

this guy looks like a poker play, bets like a poker player and is a poker player, he could bluff out gus hansen and the same day bust out daniel negraneu. this guy kicks major ass!!

gotubeat 08-15-04 06:00 PM

what r u blowen him.i enjoyed his play in the 2003 wsop loike everybody else. but lets it we have not seen him since not even in omaha. hope he is doen well in cash games

Andie 08-16-04 06:00 PM

2004 Poker will not be fun to watch without Sammy Farha.He is just so cool. I think he looks like Humphrey Bogart, except better looking...

Fred 08-16-04 06:00 PM

he sucks didnt get past Day one on the WSOP 2004

holdemhound 08-17-04 06:00 PM

Sammy farha is by far my favorite poker player and i would do anytihng to have his skill and wisdom

cohocorp 08-17-04 06:00 PM

sammy is simply the best. enough said.

pokerstar18 08-17-04 06:00 PM

just beacuse he didnt make it far in the 2004 wsop, doesnt means he sucks, phil ivey, john juanda, paul darden, hellmuth, men the master, they all didnt last long but they sure dont suck, check yourself

Si Doan 08-20-04 06:00 PM

Sammy, Sammy, damn you're the best.

Jay 08-24-04 06:00 PM

Sammy you are so cute!!! Are you married?

mr. boyd 08-24-04 06:00 PM

Guess What Farha Should Have Won And Moneymaker Luck Out When He Got That Running Ace On Ivey So Moneymaker That Fat Slob Wont Be Heard Of Ever Again In The Wsop Main Event

moonstarjo2004 08-30-04 06:00 PM

Whew,Sam Farha can play poker with me anytime!I think he is very classy and sexy!I would love to meet him!!The eyes and that grin!!

slick willy 08-30-04 06:00 PM

Sammy and Moneymaker? PLEASE!!! No contest--my money would be on Sammy ALL day, any day! Even if sammy was severly handicapped in chip count... I sweat sf....

Sammy Yassin 09-01-04 06:00 PM

Lebannese players rule!

Phil Hellmuth 09-02-04 06:00 PM

yeah..he's ok

Gus is the man 09-04-04 06:00 PM

Great player, but his aggresive style doesn't even compare Gus's.

Tracy Meyer/T-Rae/meyer_tracy 09-06-04 06:00 PM

Sammy Farha is the best. I had the chance to meet him over labor day weekend in vegas and he let me sit at the table with him and also gave me money to go but a camera to take pictures. Sammy if you are out there i need to know where to send a copy to. Your biggest fan!!!

Heartspark 09-07-04 06:00 PM

Just love to watch the Poker tournament and Sammy is a fav! Very classy man.

POKE HER FACE 09-08-04 06:00 PM

Saw Him In Vegas At The Nugget Labor Day Weekend Playing 5k-10k A Hand Blackjack. Had A Stack Of 100k In 5k Chips... Hes Loaded...

patrick/scitty/patrick_sb_44 09-13-04 06:00 PM

i love Farha's playing style and his style in general. In the 2003 WSOP, that was the best head-to-head's i have ever seen. i would have loved to seen Farha win it all.

Rick 09-14-04 06:00 PM

Exactly as sam said, he's good against good players but bad against bad players (moneymaker). In a rematch hosted by online poker site, sammy killed moneymaker.
