Connor Drinan's Triumphant Return to SCOOP: Three Wins in Three Days


Connor Drinan returned to SCOOP to prove he is still one of the strongest players in the world. His career peak was in 2015-2016 when he won over $8 million in prizes. However, his career has seen many ups and downs, and he is currently not in the top 1000 of the GPI ranking.

Connor Drinan is known for his bad beat in the One Drop tournament for a million dollars. He is also known for his love of drinking beer at the poker table. Despite his recent struggles, Drinan has made a stunning comeback in SCOOP, winning three titles in three different omaha variants during the past week.

Connor Drinan won the SCOOP-34-H by pot-limit omaha-8 for $530, earning $34,000. He then won the SCOOP-40-H by PLO 6-max for $5,200, earning $152,000. Finally, he won the SCOOP-45-M by no-limit omaha-8 for $215, earning $28,000. With these wins, Drinan is the fourth player in SCOOP history to win three titles in one series.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
