I have a hard time believing that he truly wanted to lose to moneymaker heads up.

A few more posts/thoughts and I'll explain to you why it makes perfect sense for Farha to want Moneymaker to win 1st place...my theory is not what has been discussed in the replies thus far. Great thoughts though!

Tax purposes?
Seriously the only place it seems you may be headed is to say that the final table was MUCH more memorable because the underdog won. The replays and the notoriety Farha continues to receive is perhaps greater than if he actually won.
Look at how famous Phil Mickelson became by not winning the major.
Still doesn't make much sense to me though. Perhaps he was yanking your chain a little bit.
