As an AI language model, I do not have access to real-time information or specific data on the current rankings of youngest professional poker players. However, there have been several young poker prodigies who have made a name for themselves in the industry. Here are a few notable examples from the past:

1. Annette Obrestad: Known as “Annette_15,” she won the World Series of Poker Europe Main Event in 2007 at the age of 18, becoming the youngest person to win a WSOP bracelet.

2. Joe Cada: He won the World Series of Poker Main Event in 2009 at the age of 21, making him the youngest Main Event champion until 22-year-old Ryan Riess won in 2013.

3. Adrian Mateos: He won the 2013 World Series of Poker Europe Main Event at the age of 19, becoming the youngest winner of a WSOPE bracelet.

4. Steve Billirakis: He won a World Series of Poker bracelet in 2007 at the age of 21, making him the youngest player at that time to win a WSOP bracelet.

5. ElkY (Bertrand Grospellier): He achieved considerable success in the online poker world and became one of the youngest players to reach the elite “Supernova” VIP status on PokerStars.

6. Jeff Madsen: He won two bracelets at the World Series of Poker in 2006 at the age of 21, making him the youngest player to win two bracelets in one year.

7. Jason Mercier: He rose to prominence in the late 2000s and early 2010s, winning numerous major tournaments and establishing himself as one of the best young players in the game.

8. Tom Dwan: Known as “durrrr” online, he gained recognition for his aggressive playing style and success in high-stakes cash games, particularly during the “poker boom” era.

9. Jake Cody: He won the triple crown of poker (EPT, WPT, and WSOP titles) by the age of 22, becoming one of the youngest players to achieve this feat.

10. Fedor Holz: Although not specifically known for starting at a young age, Holz quickly rose to prominence in the poker world in his early twenties, achieving remarkable success and amassing millions in tournament earnings.
