World Series of Poker* Final Table - Dennis Phillips

Dennis Phillips
An accountant from St. Louis, Missouri, Dennis Phillips has been playing poker for years and is a regular face at his local card room. He cashed in two side tournaments at WSOP* Circuit events in 2007, making the final table of each. The money may have only been small, but the experience of playing at the final table of live, multi-table tournaments will prove to be valuable when the Main Event concludes in November. Dennis is a major sports fan, and his favourite team is the St. Louis Cardinals. In fact, Dennis spent most of his time at the World Series of Poker* sporting an autographed Cardinals hat. This is a man who is clearly proud of his roots, and one who'll no doubt have plenty of fans cheering him on back home.
Dennis has said that winning the Main Event wouldn't change his life too much. He claims he'll keep his feet on the ground, but admits that he would definitely have some serious fun with the cash! He goes into the final table this November in the enviable position of chip leader, with a stack of 26,295,000. He'll be looking to keep hold of the lead as the short stacked players begin to bust themselves out. But with fellow Million Dollar Man Ivan Demidov just behind with 24,400,000, there'll certainly be some major fireworks.
