Farha
I just watched all of season 4 and here's my impression.
1) he is a joke preflop 2) he reads hands well and plays aggro postflop 3) he plays well postflop 4) His preflop innacuracies fail to be patched by his postflop play. I'm just a little confused as to how someone who i think is pretty good could continue to play like this? obv i still think he is an awesome guy. honestly i't like, if he were to fold a hand preflop it seems to me he might do pretty well. |

Re: Farha
Because he doesn't care. He's (presumably) loaded big time and loves to gamble.
Sort of like if you just launched some NL25 tables for old times sake and just spewed money everywhere and laughed.. oh wait. |

[/ QUOTE ] i didn't get the impression that he did not care about losing the 250k pot or whatever to hellmuth with aq vs aqs ai preflop. id say he looked pretty miserable. in fact watching him play the one thing i notice is that he does care about winning and playing well which is what i respect about him. |
Re: Farha
It's interesting how people's views on Farha have changed so radically. Today, people tend to call him a donkey because of what they've seen on High Stakes Poker.
But, after the 2003 WSOP aired and for at least a year aftewards, Farha was loved by most posters here. People thought Sammy Farha was exactly what a no-limt player should be. |
Re: Farha
posters got better at poker?

Re: Farha
I also think he ran pretty bad season 4 so that might be affecting it. He didn't connect with any flops when someone had an overpair and everyone seemed to be intent on calling him down moving in on him with like middle pair, which is not good if one plays like that..

Re: Farha
Regardless of what you think of his game, you have to be grateful to Sammy for making poker what it is today. Same goes for Chris Moneymaker.
