Following a massive success in Montenegro, Triton Poker has announced plans to head to Korea and Russia.
The Montenegro Triton Super High Roller Series was impressive, to say the least. From May 12th to the 18th there were four high roller events as well as insanely high stakes televised cash games. The event featured two Six-Plus Hold’em tournaments, also known as Short-Deck. The highlights of the festival included top pro Phil Ivey taking home first in the HK$ 250,000 Short Deck Ante Only event as well as two huge record-breaking €2 million cash game pots!
