While perusing around the tournament room, we noticed that there is a big stack (70,000 chips) on Table 29. There was no one sitting there at first, yet without needing to ask, one of the players gave us the scoop.
According to the player at the table, Mark Farrar and an opponent were heads up on a board of 
. Farrar, who called bets on both the flop and turn, was faced with a bet of 5,000 on the river. Intending to call, he fumbled two oversized chips across the betting line.
The floor was called, and they ruled that Farrar would have to at least put in a minimum raise of 10,000. He did so begrudgingly, and his opponent apologized before moving all in.
Farrar tanked for over a minute, then called. His opponent "only had a pair of deuces," while Farrar tabled two tens.
After his fortuitous mistake, Farrar now sits with one of the larger stacks in the room.
