Phil Gordon, is a true adventure enthusiast and sports addict. After his network software company was acquired by Cisco, Phil decided to hit the road
and see the world. In Africa, he has dived with the Great White Sharks, summitted Mt. Kilimanjaro, tracked gorillas in Uganda, and rafted the Zambezi
River. In South America he built a balsa raft to float the Amazon River Basin, trekked the Inca trail, sailed through the fiords of Patagonia and
explored the pristine wilderness of the Galapagos Islands. In Australia, Phil covered 20,000 kilometers solo in a Land Cruiser, dodging kangaroos and
wallabies, climbing Ayer's Rock, diving the Great Barrier Reef, and judging a wet t-shirt competition in the middle of the outback!
Phil is a world-class card player, having won a national championship event in bridge, and taking 4th place in the 2000 World Series of Poker main
event, claiming $400,000 in prize money and a celebrity spot on the Travel Channel documentary. Phil has been featured in articles in Yahoo! Internet
Life, Cigar Aficionado and Card Player magazines, as well as NPR Radio's This American Life, national broadcasts on Mojo Radio, and a classic
television episode of Blind Date!
A National Merit Scholarship finalist who began college at 15 (Georgia Tech, B.S. Computer Science, 1990), Phil continues to set fire to the world of
professional poker, recently beating a slew of world champions in an invitation-only event, soon to be televised on the World Poker Tour.
