Justin Phillips, As Talkative As Ever

You might remember Justin Phillips from last year's WSOP Main Event for a couple of reasons. For one, he was loud and boisterous while wearing a wife beater all tournament long, almost yelling whenever he spoke. He also got extremely excited when actor and amateur player Ray Romano was seated at his table. Or maybe you remember him for besting quads aces with his royal flush in the Main Event.

Whatever it is, Phillips is back here at the World Series, as loud and talkative as ever. He's sporting a black wife beater this year and is seated with former Aussie Millions Champion Alexander Kostritsyn. Phillips has seemed to take a liking to Kostritsyn, chatting it up with him the most thus far.

Asked what he thinks of today's event, Phillips said he's more of a PLO player than a Limit player, but he figures today's event is a good chance at a bracelet.

We're glad to see he's still as confident as ever.
