After announcing the biggest buy-in tournament in poker history till date to be hosted in 2019, the ultra high-stakes Triton Super High Roller Series has finally released the schedule for the series’ first stop of 2019 – Jeju, South Korea.

TheTriton Jeju series will run between 2^nd and 9^th March 2019 in Landing Casino, Jeju Shinhwa World, South Korea. The series is studded with 6 high-stakes tournaments throughout its run. The world’s first Short Deck event, won by Phil Ivey back in May 2018 will also make a comeback in Jeju on the first day itself. The buy-in for it is set at HKD 250k (~INR 22.68 Lakhs).

The second event is a Short Deck Bounty, which will be played in the Bounty format. The buy-in for this is HKD 250k with extra HKD 250k as the starting bounty. Next in the line-up is the HKD 500k NLH 6-Handed, which was won by David Peters last year in Jeju for HKD 8,775,000.

Following the 6-Handed, there will be another Short Deck event but with a greater buy-in of HKD 1 million on 5^th March. Coming to the gem of the series, the Triton SHR series Main Event has a staggering buy-in of HKD 2 million (~INR 1.81 Crores), beginning on 7^th March. Mikita Badziakouski won back to back Triton Main Event titles last year, shipping the first in Montenegro and the next in Jeju.
