Farber Looking for Another Deep Run in the Main Event
Last year Las Vegas VIP host Jay Farber lived the dream by navigating the WSOP Main Event field to make his way to the November Nine. When he returned months later, Farber managed to finagle his way to second place, good for $5,174,357. This year, Farber managed to survive Day 1a with 55,050, and thus far his Day 2a has been going well as he's nearly tripled that.
Farber, who is seated at one of the secondary feature tables, obviously has high hopes of another deep run, but there is still a long way to go. In a recent hand, there was around 6,000 in the pot and a flop of 
when Farber bet 2,300 from the cutoff and his opponent on the button raised to 5,625.
Farber, who is sporting his trademark panda paraphernalia, made the call and then both players checked the 
turn. The action repeated itself on the 
river, and Farber confidently tabled the 
for kings and deuces with a ten kicker. Unfortunately for him, he was outkicked as the button held the 
for a better two pair.
