The first Triton One series will be held in South Korea
The new series from the Triton Poker brand, announced in the spring, will be held in September in Jeju, South Korea. In total, the Triton One schedule includes 12 events with buy-ins from $2,000 to $20,000.
New brand of tournament series
Three months ago, Triton Poker CEO Andy Wong announced in an interview the appearance of a new “mid stakes” series, in addition to the high roller festival, which has been held for almost 10 years.
And yesterday, the location, time and full schedule of another tournament festival were announced.
From September 2 to 8, 2025, the Triton One series will be held in South Korea (Jeju). In total, the schedule includes 12 events with buy-ins from $2,000 to $20,000. Plus two satellites to the Main Event for $1.5K and a satellite to the tournament of the expensive series - WPT Global Slam:
| Number | Date | Tournament |
|---|---|---|
| #1 | 2–4/09 | $3,000 Triton One Genesis |
| #2 | 02/09 | $5,000 Single Day NLH |
| #3 | 03/09 | $5,000 Nightly NLH |
| #5 | 4–5/09 | $10,000 Mystery Bounty |
| #6 | 04/09 | $1,500 Triton One Main Event Qualifier |
| #7 | 04/09 | $5,000 Nightly NLH – Bounty Quattro |
| #8 | 5–8/09 | $8,000 Triton One Main Event |
| #9 | 05/09 | $20,000 Single Day High Roller 1 |
| #10 | 05/09 | $1,500 Triton One Main Event Qualifier |
| #11 | 05/09 | $2,000 Nightly NLH |
| #12 | 06/09 | $20,000 Single Day High Roller 2 |
| #13 | 06/09 | $2,000 Nightly NLH |
| #15 | 7–8/09 | $15,000 Triton One High Roller |
| #16 | 07/09 | $2,900 WPT Global Slam Qualifier |
| #17 | 07/09 | $2,000 Nightly NLH – Bounty Quattro |
*Events numbered 4 and 14 are not on the schedule because four is considered an unlucky number in East Asia.
Wong called the new series “a gateway to the highest level of poker that is open to all players.” Let us remind you that the Triton Super High Roller events have buy-ins from $15K to $200K.
It was not without reason that the organizers chose this place for the first Triton One. It was in Jeju in March of this year that two events set world records for the number of entries for tournaments with buy-ins of $25K and $100K.
Also, immediately after the end of the new series, the next stage of the Triton Super High Roller will begin. That is, players who planned to play in the high roller series can come to South Korea a week earlier and become participants in two tournament festivals.
