Sam Farha moved to USA after Lebansese Civil War broke out. He graduated with a degree in business administration at University of Kansas. Due to rules prohibiting smoking in poker rooms, he can frequently be seen with a "lucky" cigarette in his mouth. Farha's biggest tournament finish was in the 2003 World Series of Poker main event. During the second day of play at the 2003 World Series of Poker main event, Farha and Barry Greenstein were in an all-in pot which Greenstein won, leaving Farha extremely short stacked.(Less than 10% of the average stack) He intended to leave at that point. He said, “I’m leaving. I can’t do anything with $5,000.” Grrenstein said, “Sammy, sit down and take a shot.” Of the last eight hands played at our table that night, Sammy was all-in before the flop on seven of them. He ended the second day with $58,000 and Farha went on to finish in second place for $1.3 million in the event.
