Calvin "cal42688" Anderson extended his own record by winning not one but two Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) events at PokerStars over the weekend and now has 10 SCOOP titles to his name.

The American poker refugee, who is registered at PokerStars in Mexico, shipped his record ninth SCOOP title after outlasting a field of 338 entrants to win the SCOOP-19-H: $2,100 NLHE [6-Max], $500K Gtd for $126,659. Finishing just behind Anderson in this tournament were Aaron "AaronBeen" Been ($92,219) and David "Dpeters17" Peters ($67,143).

Anderson made history again on Sunday when he won his 10th SCOOP title. He won the SCOOP-26-H: $1,050 FLO8 [8-Max], $125K Gtd for $26,305 after agreeing to a three-way deal with Sebastian "p0cket00" Sikorski ($21,847) and Connor "blanconegro" Drinan ($20,099).

If winning a two SCOOP titles in a weekend seems impossible, Anderson was even quicker when he won two SCOOP titles in a weekend in 2011 when he won the SCOOP-25-M: $215 Stud Hi/Lo [$40K Guaranteed] for $13,090 and the SCOOP-27-H: $2,100 Razz [$150,000 Guaranteed] within a 24-hour period for his second and third SCOOP titles.

Here is a look at all 10 of Anderson's SCOOP wins.
