Allen Cunningham learned at an early age not to waste his time on a traditional nine to five job.  Once, this young man was attending school at UCLA to be in the civil engineering field.  This was rather short lived once he saw what he could do with a deck of cards.  At the age of eighteen, Allen was already cleaning the tables at the Indian casinos.  After seeing what he was capable of, it was decided that the only thing left for him was to play poker professionally.

This proved to be a smart move for Allen Cunningham.  This amazing California native has pushed his way through thousands of poker players to rise to the cream of the crop. With five World Series of Poker bracelets accredited to his name, the clever piggy has had thirty nine money wins in the World Series of Poker circuits and eleven money finishes in the world poker tour series.  All of these have made his lifetime wins to meet and exceed ten million dollars.  Moreover, he is not even close to retirement.

All in all, Allen has won many different championship matches, but at this time, no titles.  This will come as he has proven that there are no obstacles in his way. Among the wins under his belt are the October 2007 win of 300,000 in the poker after dark mega match, the 15,000 dollar buy in match for the inaugural national poker league Vegas open championship in which Cunningham took the prize of 325,000 after beating David Singer, and the May 2008 win of just about 500,000 at Caesars Palace for the world series of poker circuit. There are many other wins such as these under his belt and many more to come.

This accomplished player is one of the few in which has received the world series of poker bracelets in consecutive years.  This honor is for three consecutive years.  However, to date, Allen has won five of these coveted bracelets.
