Default Sammy Farha book ... lolz?

Is it me or does the Sammy Farha book look like a sucky beginners book with no interest for experienced 2+2'ers ? (covering all forms of omaha on around 200 pages??)


Oh well ... that's what you could expect I guess

does look a little slim, and the table of contents doesn't indicate anything too advanced...but hell, if you can't put your faith in a book co-authored by a guy named Storms, who can you trust?

For 15 bucks there is nothing that will prevent me from buying it to see what Farha has to say about a game he is supposedly best at.
Quit acting like spoiled kids and be grateful that the top pros are willing to share something with people in a first place.

did anyone click "surprise me?"

I never bought off Amazon, so I can't look inside.

Forget it, read the excerpt, I laughed. It reads like John Patrick. I doubt Farha wrote more than a few lines.

I am dumbfounded. Farha wrote about Limit Omaha Hi. There is no reason to write about that form, it gets less than 1% of Omaha action.

its a reigonal game, here in the south its played allot more than o8, which is almost non-existant. omaha hi is very popular around here, mostly played round of each with PLHE. most of the "bigger" games here in houston are 5-10 ROE or 10-25 ROE

Sammy Farha is winning player and one of the best in Omaha. I think this book is not for beginners but advanced players can get pretty much out of this. Maybe something like how to play more aggressive style in Omaha.

It is simply stupid to say that this book is a joke. I will gladly read Farha's thoughts especially since there isn't much Omaha information available. Maybe Farha will teach things that other solid players can't!
