Sammy's a pro and plays for money. He doesnt lose in order to bring more $50 internet players into his $1000 ante game.

He was being polite. I'm sure he gave far less thought to his response than any of us here.

Now the quote above may be the closest thing to the accurate answer as it gets. I'm positive he gave little or no thought to my question, he had just been talking to two of the hottest girls on the planet (I'm sure his mind was somewhere else!).

Wow, didn't think this thread would generate this much response. Yes, I should have asked him why he said that...but you know 1 a.m. after a night of pokin' and smokin' (and drinking) you tend to forget to follow up!

I wish I could tell ya..

Let me just say this.. It wouldn't be the first time it happened. There's a well known regular TV player that was taken out behind the woodshed a couple times (No, Not Gus either), for stiffing people on deals and for various other actions.

I got no evidence Sam Farha would do this, but it does happen.

And you have evidence of this alleged other event?

A relayed story from a relative of mine who is a very well known professional.

I got no reason to not believe him.

Nope!

I'd rather be content with you thinking I'm full of $hit than rather name the guy I'm related to.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I was always under the impression that chops were okay'd and confirmed by casino employees. Therefore, if three people chop, the amount of the chop and the amount remaining that they'll play for is determined and recorded. That way, nobody takes an extra tax burden, and everything's kosher with the IRS. Isn't this how it's done? It's not just a oral agreement between two or three people, right? So given that fact, there's no way your theory is correct.
