A long time ago, people could become legit D-list tv celebrities by making the final table of a WPT event. One person to do this was a guy named Paul Phillips, and years ago I found his blog, which I found funny and thoughtful.
He
lamented the very topic of the misuse of "penultimate" by most people, as only he can. And had a humorous
follow-up post about a month later.
So there I am, digging down an internet rabbit hole from a 13 year old blog post, and I spot a Howard Treesong in the comments!
I guess poker's a small world.
