Allen Cunningham- Last big name left in WSOP main event

If you didn't know him, you might miss him at the poker table.
His soft-spoken and unassuming demeanor is contrary to his aggressive style of play. Allen Cunningham was born March 24, 1977, in Riverside, California. He started playing poker and winning in public cardrooms as soon as he hit legal gambling age. In his early 20s, he already was playing high-limit cash games and chalking up best all-around player honors at major tournaments.

He's now one of the youngest veterans on the professional poker circuit.Cunningham has 88 recorded cashes in major poker tournaments and has made an impressive 70 final tables, going heads up in 22 of them and winning 14.

He has three World Series of Poker bracelets and titles, in the 2005 $1,500 no-limit hold'em, the 2002 $5,000 deuce-to-seven draw, and the 2001 $5,000 stud events. Last year he finished fourth at the World Poker Finals at Foxwoods.

Cunningham is a representative of Full Tilt Poker.
