There is a pretty good chance Jen and I will be interviewing Jay Farber this week while I am in Vegas. (For those of you who live under a rock WVH he came 2nd in the wsop Main event this week).

If you have any questions you would like me to ask him let me know in this thread!

Can u please ask him wether the night before the HU was increasing the pressure on him.Thinking of all the changes that would have come if he wins the WSOP . And because of all these thoughts he wasnt as free in his decissions as nessassary to win it.

First of all congrats! Great performance!!!

You might have been a bit carddead HU, but why didn't you 4bet(bluff) a bit more frequent in position vs Riess?

Will we see you more in the Live events from now on?

And loved your bluff with 65 ON RIVER :D

Btw huge arms both my arms will fit in one of yours LOL

Well done Jay. Even Doyle Brunson tweeted on how freaking card dead you were and how much Reese was running like God.

Looking back, during that period when you were 3:1 chip dog... you were open raising on the button with nearly ATC and Riess coming over the top (repeatedly) and you folding, did you ever consider tightening up your opening range a bit? Riess just looked like he knew he could run over you at times.

Debi - make sure you get him a CC patch so he can rock it out at the final table of 2014!

In case there's still time for questions:

Please explain the panda!

How did he prep for the final table?

Has he ever regretted a tattoo that he's gotten? When did he get his first one?

How often has he played the Main Event, and how often was he backed?
