Default Re: Is this story about Sam Farha true?

[ QUOTE ]
I don't know if it is true or not but here is something I know to be true since I witnessed it with my own eyes.

In the High Stakes Poker episode that Aba was on Farha pulled a blatant angle shoot that was utterly ridiculous. He made a complete fool of himself and a mockery of the game. For those who didn't see it, it is hard to desribe but he basically pretended to call an AI bet in the dark on the flop and then Grimstarred. He then miraculously convinces his opponent to chop the pot with no flop whe it was very clear that Farha's hand had way the worst of it. Made me want to puke.

i think most people were shocked about that one, but then someone posted the whole story and it makes a lot more sense, even though it is still slightly bizarre- (can't find the thread though).

Cardplayer just did an interview with Farha. Good interview actually I always like to listen to stories about people who had nothing and are now rich playing in the big game. http://cardplayer.com/magazine/article/16465 ... Anyone know if Chau Giang has been interviewed before ? I'd like to read about what he has to say some day ...

Not that I'm aware of, but I do know that the most recent issue of CardPlayer (the one w/ Mizrachi on the cover) has a Todd Brunson article therein with a brief 2-pg bio on Chau.

Thanks for posting that link. Was a good interview that I would have missed otherwise.
