Everyone knew coming into SCOOP 2024 that Lex had drafted an incredibly strong team. But few could have expected his SCOOP League team to have dominated in such fashion.

Most of that is in part to Denis "aDrENalin710" Strebkov who has doubled his SCOOP titles tally in a single year, winning his fourth last night in SCOOP 108-M: $109 HORSE.

This year, Strebkov has won SCOOP titles in 8-Game, 2-7 Single Draw, 5-Card PLO and now HORSE, showing he's a true mixed games competitor. In fact, only one of his SCOOP titles has ever come in NLHE.

The top four in this particular event had all won SCOOP titles before, but Strebkov came out on top to deny "soumi7" and "DeathBrain09", with "JRIXYZLE" also denied having won their first SCOOP title earlier this week in Event 97-L: $22 FL Badugi.

No SCOOP events play on May 24, with players taking a well-earned rest. When the action resumes on Saturday, Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski has a realistic chance of becoming a six-time SCOOP champion.

The super-talented Brazilian holds a commanding chip lead in SCOOP 103-H: $2,100 8-Game, where only five players remain in the hunt for the top prize of $34,172. Dzivielvski has more than twice as many chips as the chasing pack, so it is fair to say the ball is in his court.

Seventh Heaven For Denis Strebkov

Denis "aDrENalin710" Strebkov bagged the seventh SCOOP title of his career by taking down SCOOP 101-H: $1,050 5-Card PLO 6-Max PKO. Strebkov outlasted a star-studded cast of 150 entrants and received $32,177 of the $150,000 prize pool.

Austria's Niki "RealAndyBeal" Jedlicka was the first of the finalists heading for the exits. The untimely demises of "Mescari," QuBall311," MAMbl4" and "mari4ka9510" left Strebkov heads-up against Hungary-based grinder James "TheDrunkLife" Whittet.

Both heads-up players were guaranteed $13,385 plus the bounties they'd collected, but Whittet would not collect any more scalps because he fell at the final hurdle, like so many do when facing Strebkov, and had to make do with an $18,666 score. Strebkov's latest SCOOP victory came with $32,177.

None of the SCOOP League players have earned as many points as Strebkov. The Thailand-based Russian has accumulated 1,950 points, 55 more than the prolific "FAL1st" of Team Spraggy. Strebkov is now tied with Rui "RuiNF" Ferreira, Jussi "calvin7v" Nevanlinna, Mike "SirWatts" Watson, Jerry "Perrymejsen" Odeen, Tobias "Senkel92" Leknes, and Matthew "MUSTAFABET" Ashton on seven wins.

Blaz Zerjav

Blaz "Scarmak3r" Zerjav came out on top of a 270-strong field in SCOOP 98-H: $1,050 NLHE 6-Max PKO after a dominant performance at the virtual felt. Zerjav's $63,785 haul was made up of $22,434 from the regular prize pool and an astonishing $41,351 worth of bounty payments. Zerjav's bounty haul was almost as much as first and second place combined.

Zerjav defeated Malta-based star "Haringbuis" heads-up to clinch his third career SCOOP title, and earn some much-needed points for Team Tonkaaaa in the SCOOP League.

Team Tonkaaaa are currently in third place in the standings, but more performances like this from Zerjav, and that could all change.
