[edit]Dennis technically lives in Cottage Hills, Illinois. Should we change it, or is it St. Louis to make it easier on people not in the area? Yawetag (talk) 15:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
- Change it to whatever's most accurate. --Closedmouth (talk) 16:13, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
This page glorifies Dennis Phillips too much. His PTR rating is an astonishing 1/100 [1], putting him in the bottom 1% of online cash players. Is that of note? In online tournaments he's averaging -53% ROI [2]. Is that also worth noting? He's essentially a well-below average player who had a lucky two weeks in his life. 76.226.56.151 (talk) 04:27, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
- Aside from his two Main Event cashes, he's accumulated another $300,000 in tournament winnings in his career.[3] Those kinds of winnings I'd personally say don't all come from luck. As such, I'd say he's a more-than-competent live tournament player.JaeDyWolf (talk) 05:05, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
