Cuinn Griffin finished in 49th place

Five tables remain in the Championship and the stakes are going up. The pay jump is up to $15,700 and really big money is on the horizon.

Cuinn Griffin was among the recent eliminations, going out in 49th place for $13,600. We had our eye on Griffin and tracked his progress as one of our players with an interesting story about getting into the game.

We hosted the WPT Meet-Up game on Thursday with three special high-hand bonuses. Griffin had the high hand when the prize was called at 6 pm and he earned his seat into the WPT Tampa Championship. He turned that into a very nice payday this afternoon.
