Title: Sam Razavi - Mini WPT Funk? Post by: snoopy1239 on December 17, 2012, 01:23:35 PM I'm biased cos' he one of our guys, but I think Sam's globetrotting achievements deserve a mention on here, especially considering there are often funk threads for the Brits.
He's currently in the final three of WPT China with 120K up top, and was also crowned APT Player of the Year. He also captured the ANZPT Melbourne title in August. And that's not forgetting that he was the UKIPT Player of the Year in 2011, when he also finalled the Aussie Millions. Good luck to him. Nice lad, fun character, and knows how to enjoy this game and get the most out of what the live scene has to offer. Title: Re: Sam Razavi - Mini WPT Funk? Post by: tikay on December 17, 2012, 01:25:29 PM Love him to bits. If you converse with him, Adam, give him my best regards please. Any idea when he returns home? I need words with him about something. I sent him a note on Friday, but he has yet to reply. Title: Re: Sam Razavi - Mini WPT Funk?

I feel like Poirot when I find out what country he's in, never mind when he decides to grace us with his presence back here. He was likely one of those kids who could never sit still at school.

Post by: Tal on December 17, 2012, 09:21:11 PM He's like the Greg Raymer of tournaments that aren't HPT events.
As for the comment about flags, the chess player Nigel Short is trying to win tournaments in as many different countries as possible. AFAIK, he has tournament wins (not just ITM) in 29 countries: Angola, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Canada, Chile, China, Denmark, Estonia, France, Great Britain, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Peru, Romania, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Ukraine, USA, Venezuela. Gibraltar was not included as a separate country. Title: Re: Sam Razavi - Mini WPT Funk? Post by: tikay on December 17, 2012, 09:23:36 PM ^^^^
Incredible! Title: Re: Sam Razavi - Mini WPT Funk? Post by: dreenie on December 18, 2012, 02:07:29 AM He's had an incredible year, and he is always so humble with his victories. Very professional and an aspiration to anyone looking to go into full time poker.
Congratulations ! X |
