Farmar holding his own at poker
July 8th, 2009, 9:34 am · 5 Comments · posted by JANIS CARR, OCREGISTER.COM
Looks like Jerry Buss has competition.
Jordan Farmar survived Day 1 at the World Series of Poker at the Rio in Las Vegas, eclipsing 100,000 in chips at one point and finishing in ninth place. Not bad for a $10,000 buy-in.
The Lakers guard is playing for a $8.6 million grand prize. If he wins, maybe he could donate the money to the “Re-sign Lamar Club.”

You gotta like that “Unabomber” look.
maybe he should be working on his basketball game instead of his poker game. or has he already given up his spot to shannon brown?
Look at JF, who does he think he is.? Big ego, less game = a ticket to another city. Kinda punk
he kind of looks like Jerry Buss the day of the parade.
It’s not like he can’t work out and still spend time at the poker table.
