Scott Clements Is the North American Poker Champion! 2 years ago

Scott Clements is more or less the man. The former mortgage broker from Mount Vernon, Washington has won World Series bracelets at each of the last WSOPs and won a WPT bracelet when he took down the Canadian Open at Fallsview in Season 5. Clements can add to his much-lauded collection of poker jewelry tonight as he has just won the North American Poker Championship!

After about 10 hands of non-noteworthy heads-up play, Jonathan Little raised to $180,000 from the button and saw Clements make the call. The flop came 7s 5c 5h and both players checked. The turn was the 4s and Clements checked to Little, who bet out $250,000. Clements raised to $550,000 and Little came over the top all-in for his last $1.5 million. Clements called instantly.

"Am I drawing dead?" asked Little and indeed he was as The Bracelet turned up Qd 5d for trips. Little, turning over Kc 4h, could catch no cards to win and is eliminated in second place for $680,862.

Clements wins his second WPT title and takes home $1,387,224 in straight Canadian ca$h, homey, as well as an entry into the WPT World Championship in April. He also takes home an exclusive WPT chip set and, oh by the way, earns a free interview with PokerListings.com.

Congratulations to Scott, Jonathan and the country of Canada for great performances all around!

Heads-Up! 2 years ago

The money has been presented (minus the scantily-clad women normally associated with such a process) and heads-up has begun from Fallsview. As we get underway, Jonathan Little tells Scott Clements, "Don't get mad at me if I three-out you."

"I won't get mad at you," says Clements. "I might be mad, but I'll never get mad at the player."

Chip counts as we go into heads-up are as follows:

Scott Clements $6,400,000
Jonathan Little
$3,685,000

Cloutier Dan'd 2 years ago

Jonathan Little raises to $180,000 from the small blind and David Cloutier moves all-in for his last $1.68 million from the big blind. Little makes the call after a few moments of thought and turns up As 10s to Cloutier's Jh 9h. The flop comes 8d 6s 3s and Little picks up a flush draw, and after the turn card is the Jh FieryJustice gets there. The turn is an inconsequential 3c and David Cloutier has been eliminated from this tournament. The Brampton boy goes out in third and oh by the way, takes home $355,021.

We're now down to heads-up play and the action has been paused for the money presentation. We'll get chip counts, etc. as soon as we return to action.

Little Hit Hard! 2 years ago

Scott Clements doubled through Jonathan Little rivering a flush against Little's straight.

The hand played out with David Cloutier and Scott Clements limping, while Little checked his option.

The flop came the 8s 7h 6h and Little bet $150k. Cloutier folded, but Clements made the call.

The turn card came the 3s and Clements check-called a $400,000 bet from Little. With the Ks river falling, Clements moved all-in for his last $1.1 million. Little made the call and claimed a straight, turning over 5-4. But it wasn't enough to beat Clements' 10s 6s for the flush.

The pot gave Clements a little more ammo with $3.6 million. Meanwhile, Little inched closer to the rail with just $1.1 million left in his stack.

The Cloutz! 2 years ago
