Josh was born July 27, 1985 and lived in Bakersfield California until his parents moved to Yerington Nevada. He was diagnosed with testicular cancer in July, 2004 at the age of 19. He had surgery but it had spread so rapidly through-out his body and he had to have several rounds of Chemo.

Introducing the Josh Farler Cardroom App

This free to use app can be used to manage your home poker game (chip and payout calculator, timer) and offers 4 single player games (Liar's Poker, Acey Deucy, Video Poker, Scr@w Your Neighbor.
In the 2016 and 2017 charity Texas Holdem tournaments we used "hole card" cameras but were limited to 4 cameras due to the USB capture device used and the number of web cams it could support. While they work fine they took time to setup, where slightly in the way, and were seen by other hole card cameras.
See the story of buiding the NEW TABLE here. For information related to the creation of the Holecard Videos click HERE.

Earlier this year Clickteam ,a small software company based in Paris France, had a sale. The sale was held on the website Humble Bundle (www.humblebundle.com) and had a charity component. Clickteam choose the Josh Farler Foundation (JFF) as the supported charity.
Through the tens of thousands of Humble Bundle users the sale was quite successful not only for Clickteam but for the Josh Farler Foundation. Humble Bundle provided a donation of ~$100,000 to the foundation. The JFF board can not fully express how thankful we are or how much this donation will help our efforts.
