Clements Wins WSOP $10k O8 For Fourth Bracelet

Just shy of 20 years after he won his first World Series of Poker gold bracelet in a $3,000 Omaha eight-or-better tournament, Scott Clements emerged victorious from a field of 204 in the 2026 WSOP $10,000 championship in the same game for $450,176 and his fourth title at the series. This was the second-largest payday yet for the 44-year-old, trailing only the $1.5 million he earned with a win in the 2006 World Poker Tour North American Poker Classic. Clements now has nearly $8.7 million in career tournament earnings. This latest win was the first six-figure score of the 2020's for the two-time WPT champion, and his first recorded cash of 2026. In addition to his pair of bracelets in this game, Clements also took down a $1,500 pot-limit Omaha event at the 2007 WSOP and the $1,500 dealers choice title a dozen years after that. Clements overcame a stacked field down the stretch in this event, with 40 bracelets amongst the other players who made the final day of this event, including 17-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth and several other multi-time bracelet WSOP champions. The 900 Card Player Player of the Year points that came with this victory moved Clements inside the top 400 in the POY race standings presented by CoinPoker. He also secured 450 PokerGO Tour points as the champion, enough to join the top 20 on that high-stakes-centric leaderboard.
