Final Table Bios: Seat 4, Scott Montgomery (19,690,000)

Seat 4 - Scott Montgomery
Seat 4 - Scott Montgomery
26-year old professional poker player Scott Montgomery is one of two Canadians at the final table, his fellow countryman and opponent being Toronto’s Darus Suharto. Hailing from Perth, Ontario, Montgomery attended college at the University of Waterloo—a school that has produced so many of poker’s top emerging players, including Mike “Timex” McDonald, Steve Paul-Ambrose, and WSOP bracelet winner Nenad Medic. Montgomery, though, attributes the Waterloo phenomenon to coincidence, confessing that he knows none of the aforementioned pros personally.

Montgomery made his first major tournament splash at the 2008 L.A. Poker Classic, where he finished 5th in the $10,000 buy-in Main Event for a $296,860 score. The money he earned from his win enabled him to continue playing the high buy-in tournament circuit and he relocated to Las Vegas for the duration of the 2008 World Series of Poker. Montgomery played in a number of events, notching a 29th place finish in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em event and 17th place in the $2,000 No-Limit Hold’em event. Immediately following his final table finish at the WSOP Main Event, he headed across the Strip to Bellagio, where he played in the Bellagio Cup, and finished 4th in the $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em event for $36,025. Montgomery has also traveled to Europe since making the November Nine, playing in both the EPT Barcelona and the WSOP-E in London.

Montgomery did not retain any coaching services prior to the Main Event final table. He has, however vowed publicly (just after eliminating Chris Klodnicki in 12th place) to get his winning hand tattooed on his body should he take the whole thing down. He goes into play today third in chips, with 19,690,000.
