Starting Hands
Play or pass: Sammy Farha

With his slicked-back hair, an unlit cigarette hanging out of his mouth and wit as sharp as his suit, Lebanon-born Farha is easy to spot. Although he prefers high-stakes cash games, his tournament record is still impressive. Not only does he have a WSOP bracelet, but he finished second to Chris Moneymaker in the WSOP main event in 2003, a title that many think he deserved to win. ACES
