Less than two weeks ago Scott Seiver won his 5th career bracelet and boldly proclaimed he wanted a 2nd one this year as well as Player of the Year. 

Today he stands with the first goal complete and the second one looking very promising. 

He has just taken down the $1,500 Razz event for $141,374. He defeated a field of 547 and a final table that included Brandon Shack-Harris and Ben Yu, to capture his 6th bracelet. 

He now sits at the top of the 2024 Player of the Year rankings with 2,566 points, quite a way ahead of Nick Schulman in 2nd with 1,890. In his second winner’s interview he explained he is really going for it:

“It’s the entire motivator,” said Seiver. “I really, truly want to win Player of the Year this year. I’m going to do as much as I can to make that happen.”
