Sammy Farha Wins 3rd World Series of Poker Bracelet
Considered to be among the best Omaha players in the world, Sammy Farha has just won his 3rd World Series of Poker bracelet in Event 25, $10,000 Omaha high-low split eight-or-better world championship.
"This is very special, of course," said Farha. "Anytime you can beat a tough field, it's special. There are a lot of great players. The whole field is amazing. Every year, I think this is the toughest field in the entire WSOP. It is 212 players and they are all good players."
This was one of the tightest competitions with three prior WSOP bracelet winners sitting at the final table.
"I love the game," he said. "I enjoy the game. This is my hobby. This is my business. This is everything, you know. I enjoy it and that's why I do it. You have to enjoy the game to be good at it."
The prize was a whopping $488,241.
