1. This guy is hugely entertaining.

2. In all honesty, does anyone know what the [censored] is wrong with this guy?

He's definitely fun to watch. I think he preplans some of his quotes though so he can get attention.

Yea, I get that feeling when he says something and everyone ignores him, then he says the same cheesey line again a little louder until people are like yea whatever phil. Then he puts on that [censored] eating grin because somebody recognised phil exists.

Phil must be the hugest retard alive. He probably gave away ~20k in EV to Ivey in insurance....It just amazes me that he's made a living as a professional gambler.

QFMFT!

Phil is not a gambler at all -- he has proved that. He will lay down a 75% favorite if his entire tournament life is at risk. In SS2, Doyle said that he once saw Phil lay down an open-ended straight flush draw in the early stages of a tournament. He's proved over and over that he doesn't like to gambol....

Thus, Ivey's PWNAGE of him with "insurance"! LOLOLOLOL

did anyone hear what he said about shak after she knocked him out? am i crazy or did he say, "and she can't win. she is just going to give the chips away." so two faced. he will berate the men at the table, but he is very classy to the lady. untill he leaves the table, then he will talk trash behind her back.

From Phil's blog :

"The first final table he has watched in years and he MAKES $109,000, sigh. I don't mind him earning, but why did it have to be against me, again!?! "

Where to start :-)
