A "Lot of Luck" for Sammy Farha
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 0 ante
No fewer than four players were building a pot on a K♥5♣2♠10♥ board, with Sammy Farha first to act. The 2003 Main Event runner-up bet and received calls from John Lewis and Marc Perlman.
On the button, Robert Galdo made it two bets to go, and Farha and the other players called.
"Already the biggest pot I've ever seen!" Thomas Slayday laughed as he watched the action at his table unfold.
The river brought the K♣ and Farha bet. Lewis folded, Perlman called, and Galdo, after raising the turn, folded.
With a smile, Farha rolled over A♣K♦5♥4♣ for kings full of fives and the winner.
"It takes a lot of luck to win with this hand," Farha chuckled.
