Gavin Griffin is an American professional poker player. He attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. Starting as an internet poker player he successfully made the transition to live poker, and broke Allen Cunningham's record as the youngest person ever to win a World Series of Poker title in 2004, winning a $3,000 Pot Limit Texas hold'em event. Griffin lost that record the following World Series to Eric Froehlich. In 2007 he won the Grand Final of the European Poker Tour in Monte Carlo, after qualifying via a $240 online satellite tournament on PokerStars.com. His victory paid him €1,825,010 which pushed him to the top of the all-time European Poker Tour winnings list. Other achievements include finishing 3rd in a World Series of Poker Circuit Event at Harrah's Rincon in San Diego and finishing 7th at the 2007 World Series of Poker Pot Limit Hold'em Championship at the Rio in Las Vegas. In 2008 Griffin won the Borgata Winter Open, his first World Poker Tour title. With the win, he was the first player to have won a WSOP bracelet, an EPT event, and a WPT event. Only three other players, Roland De Wolfe, Jake Cody, and Bertrand Grospellier, have won a title in each of these three tournaments since Griffin accomplished the feat. LESS
