Farha Wins With Both Halves
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 100 ante
Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Sam Farha completed with 2♥ up and was called by two players.
Opponent 1: XxXx/10♣K♥6♣ (Folded on fifth street)
Opponent 2: XxXx/7♠3♠4♠A♦/Xx
Sam Farha: XxXx/2♥4♥5♠6♦/Xx
On fourth street, the king up checked to Farha who bet and both players called. The same action repeated on fifth street but this time only one player called.
The ace up checked to Farha on sixth who bet again and his opponent checked dark on seventh, which Farha responded with a bet prior to looking at his final card.
His opponent called and Farha turned over 8♥7♥A♠ for an eight-high straight with a six-five low which was good for both halves and the WSOP bracelet winner scooped the pot.
