Meet the November Nine -- Phil CollinsOnline Tournament Pro Enters Final Table in Fourth Chip Position |
|
Phil Collins is entering the 2011 World Series of Poker main event final table fourth in chips with 23,875,000. Collins has an impressive online poker record playing under the name “USCphildo,” a name he chose while attending the University of South Carolina. He has nearly $1.7 million in prior tournament earnings, but what really makes that amount impressive is that the 26 year old has earned that amount without ever cashing for more than five figures in a single event.
Come November, there is a good chance that 26-year-old Phil Collins will have the loudest rail at the WSOP main event final table. During the bubble, Collins’ friends flooded the stands with a boombox that played Phil Collins songs on a loop as they sang along. Card Player TV caught up with Collins to learn more about him, his run to the final table, his thoughts on his position, and more.
