Poker Stories: Scott Seiver WSOP POY

Scott Seiver called his shot in 2024, making it known that he intended to win World Series of Poker Player of the Year honors. After 17 cashes, nearly $1.5 million in earnings, and three bracelets, he accomplished his goal and will have a banner hanging at the Horseshoe/Paris for future generations of poker players to see.

With seven bracelets overall, Seiver now ranks seventh all time and is tied with such greats as Billy Baxter, John Hennigan, and Daniel Negreanu. Despite his focus on high-stakes cash games, the 39-year-old Ivy League grad has still managed to rack up more than $27 million in tournament earnings, including numerous high roller wins and a World Poker Tour title.

Highlights from this interview include a first-time full-summer grind, abandoning his chips, playing regs vs. unknowns, being recognized by his peers, good enough at Omaha, low-stakes razz over high-stakes hold'em, $2,000 movie tickets, a prestigious deuce, last of the old school, the hall of fame, 10-2 with Doyle Brunson, and dad's D'Brickashaw disbelief.
