Scott "BigRiskky" Clements Trying to Go Deep in Two

MrCleverFox

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Scott "BigRiskky" Clements playing both events at once.

Earlier in the day we made mention of several players who were multitabling between this event and Event #47: $565 WSOP.com ONLINE Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed. While at first, we mentioned that John Racener was multitabling, it's Scott Clements that's actually the one to watch, going deep in Event #47 and surviving here in Event #46 as well.

Clements has survived through the first eight levels here in Event #46 and while he was doing that, he was busy making it deep in the online event as well, playing under the handle BigRiskky. Clements has built up a stack of 448,033 in that event and currently sits 14 of the 53 players remaining.

Clements will be shooting for the first place prize of $135,078 in that event but he still has some work to do here tonight in this event as well, with two more hours left to play. It would be a truly historic and amazing feat should Clements manage to win an event while playing another at the same time.
