Farha Takes a Hit

As we mentioned earlier, Sammy Farha is in the house. After quickly doubling however, he's sunk back down to 40,000 chips.

Farha, Rami Boukai, and a third player saw a flop of {5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Farha, who was in the blinds, checked to Boukai who fired 2,500, and only Farha called. The turn was another five - the {5-Spades} - and both players checked. The river was the {2-Clubs}, and Farha led out for 5,000. Boukai quickly called.

"Flush," Farha announced.

Boukai tabled {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for a full house however, and Farha mucked his hand.
