Dennis Philips, Charity and the WSOP

Last year’s final table at the World Series of Poker’s main event was commanded by a man in a red hat and a white shirt, Dennis Philips.


He very nearly won it all, but eventually busted out in third place. This year he is back to try it again, and along the way has made a commitment to charity, like a lot of poker players. He is donating a percentage of his winnings to Prevent Cancer Foundation's "Bad Beat on Cancer", and participated in the "Shuffle Up For Poker Gives" charity tournament that was hosted by Linda Johnson and Mike Sexton.
