Jay Philips Travels from Minnesota to Borgata

If you're ever looking for Jay Philips in the poker field, just look for the color purple. More often than not she's donning something plum-colored, be it a jacket or fedora.

Philips, who hails from Minnesota, was on the East Coast for business and decided to come down to the Borgata last night to spend the weekend playing some poker. Today, she's competing in Event #13: $560 Super Survivor looking for a $5,000 payday. She knows how to do it too as last year she cashed this very event.

Philips, who is a regular on the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT), has amassed more than $74,000 playing tournament poker with her best cash being $6,516 for finishing fifth in the 2015 Running Aces CSP April Fool's Main Event. Other scores on her poker resume include 180th in the 2017 Borgata Summer Poker Open Event #1: $550 Deepstack for $1,220 and 106th in the 2014 Borgata Summer Heater $180 Big Stack for $370.

If she can survive long enough, Philips will lock up another $5,000 here at Borgata!
