Final Table Bios - Seat 6: Scott Clements (801,000)
Shortly after making the jump, Scott began putting up results. In 2005, he took down a $1,000 event at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe for over $45,0000. He also eked into the money of the WSOP Main Event during the summer.
In 2006, things really took off for Scott. He took to the WSOP and walked away with over $300,000 and his first bracelet. The event he won was the $3,000 Omaha High-Low event. Top pros Thor Hansen and Phil Hellmuth were among the final table players that Scott bested that day. He continued to have success throughout the remainder of the year. Scott final tabled the WSOP Circuit event at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe and finished eighth. He also won an event at the North American Poker Championships for nearly $225,000. In total, Scott raked in over half a million dollars during that year.
Things in 2007 got even better. To kick things off, Scott placed eighth at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure for over $150,000. That was in January. In April, he came in second at the Five-Star World Poker Classic for over $160,000. A few more cashes happened leading up to the WSOP.
At the 2007 WSOP, Scott cashed five times. He also made two final tables. That’s a pretty impressive World Series, and one of those events Scott won. The win at the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha event landed Clements his second bracelet and nearly $200,000. Halfway through the year, Scott had already surpassed his total winnings from the previous year. After the WSOP, he won an event at the Legends of Poker for nearly $100,000, and then it was time for Scott to shine at the North American Poker Championships again. In the Championship Event, Scott took first for over $1.5 million.
The following year, Scott was successful once again. He won an event at the Five-Star World Poker Classic for over $200,000 and then went on to cash at the WSOP four times, making two final tables. He also ran deep in two events at the Festa al Lago Classic in Las Vegas.
Scott placed second in the $10,000 Omaha Hi/Lo World Championship earlier this Series. He has over $3.3 million in career tournament earnings.
