What a guy. While others are looking to profit from the 4 month final table "delay," Dennis Phillips is looking to help others.
He's auctioning off ad space; "the place closest to his heart."
But, he won't profit from this at all. In regards to money, that is. All proceeds will go to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society - Gateway Area Chapter, St. Louis, Missouri.
The highest bid so far is
$16,200.
PokerStars is following his lead as well. In addition to the above auction, Dennis has already committed 1% of his winnings to '
Put a Bad Beat on Cancer,' in which
PokerStars will match 100%.
He was at the feature table in the Day 6 episodes televised Tuesday on ESPN. Not only does he have a big heart, but he's got game as well. I think he has a great shot at capturing his first WSOP bracelet; and what a bracelet that is. :smile:
