Scott Seiver won the Event #10: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo Championship for $426,744 at the 2024 World Series of Poker for his fifth WSOP gold bracelet. He now joins Daniel Alaei, David Chiu, Eli Elezra, Adam Friedman, Benny Glaser, Michael Mizrachi, John Monnette, and Scotty Nguyen as five-time WSOP bracelet winnings. This victory also marked his third largest score at the WSOP and also saw him move to 30th on the All-Time Money List with more than $26 million, according to The Hendon Mob.
The $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo Championship attracted 197 entrants and created a prize pool of $1,832,100 in prize money, which paid the final 30 players. Day 3 would see the final two players play under the bright lights of the Horseshoe feature table, with several levels of play livestreamed on PokerGO. Play ended on Day 3 with just four players remaining and Seiver holding the chip lead over Jonathan Cohen, Calvin Anderson, and Paul Zappulla.
Day 4 began with Zappulla being eliminated in fourth place when he ran into the quads of Anderson, who now held the chip lead. All three players would take their turn holding the chip lead during an intense five-hour battle before Anderson was eliminated in third place when his queens ran into the aces and a low of Seiver. Seiver would enter heads-up play against Cohen with a three-to-one chip advantage and immediately began chipping away at the Canadian. With his foot on the gas, he would eventually eliminate Cohen in second place when he rivered a straight against Cohen's two pair.
Seiver collected his fifth WSOP bracelet to add to his collection, which includes victories in 2008, 2018, 2019, and 2022, where he won Event #3: $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em Freezeout for $320,059. Regarded as one of the best high-stakes cash game players in Las Vegas, he has dedicated more time to cash games than tournaments over the years. Having side bets heading into the 2024 WSOP, Seiver is on a mission to show that he is one of the best all-around poker players in the world, with aspirations to prove to his peers and the public.
