Phillips Still Going Strong
Dennis Phillips has been spotted among the masses in the Pavilion Room, and he's up to 27,000 chips in the early stages of this event. Phillips is best known for his runner-up finish to Peter Eastgate in the 2008 WSOP Main Event, and his deep run to a 45th-place finish in the Main Event the following year.
The man with the trademark St. Louis Cardinals baseball cap has also had incredible success as a WSOP senior, finishing second in the 2012 $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Championship for $372,895, and fifth in the 2014 edition of the event for $153,883.
Phillips scored a $4,517,773 payday as the 2008 Main Event runner-up, but he has more than $6 million in career earnings. A good portion of those non-Main Event winnings have come in the seniors events, and perhaps he'll add to that total with a deep run in 2019.
