Gavin Smith - Seat 1
Age: 39
Starting Chip Stack: 197,500
Biggest Tournament Cash: 2005 Mirage Poker Showdown (1st - $ 1,128,278)
A talented tournament professional, Gavin Smith is one of poker’s nice guys. “The Caveman” turned pro about five years ago and has seen much success on the tournament trail, having racked up almost $4 million dollars in career earnings. Gavin’s sense of humor and passion for no-holds-barred prop-betting action makes him very entertaining to watch at the table. He’ll start the day with 197,500 in chips but don’t be surprised if that doubles within the first hour of play. Gavin will be looking to improve on his 7th-place finish at last year’s WSOP-C Rincon event, where he took home $34,674 in prize money.
