Satellites and Qualification
Although the Triton Series primarily targets the high roller community, a limited number of live satellites may be available on-site. In previous years (e.g., Triton ONE ), lower buy-in qualifiers (e.g., $1,500) were held directly before the main events at Les A Casino. We recommend inquiring at the registration desk upon arrival about current “Qualifier” opportunities.
Live Streaming and Coverage
Poker fans worldwide can follow the action through Triton’s top-quality broadcasts. The crew uses state-of-the-art technology and expert commentators to ensure the audience doesn’t miss a single important hand.

Proper administration and financial arrangements are essential for participating in tournaments. We have gathered the most important information regarding the registration process and payment options below.

- Registration: The registration desk is located at the entrance of the Les A Casino poker room. Presentation of a passport is mandatory for entry into the casino (21+).
- Payment Methods: Players frequently use the Luxon Pay app for fast and secure buy-ins, but bank transfers and cash are also accepted at the VIP desk.
Destination and Attractions
Jeju Island offers countless recreational opportunities for time spent away from the poker tables, whether it be luxury relaxation or active excursions. It is worth taking the time to explore the surroundings to make the experience complete.
- The Venue: Jeju Shinhwa World is a premium integrated resort offering a theme park, water park, luxury hotels (Marriott, Landing), and a shopping center all in one place.

To ensure a smooth arrival and transportation on the island, it is worth researching local transfer options in advance. The information below will help you compile the most optimal travel plan.

The Jeju Poker Experience
The poker action at LES A Casino is split between a consistent cash game scene and a packed calendar of international festivals. Cash games typically spread KRW 2,000/5,000 and KRW 5,000/10,000 No-Limit Hold’em, though during major series like APT Jeju or Triton, the room explodes with high-stakes action reaching KRW 100,000/200,000 and beyond.
The venue is famous for its “festival season.” In early 2026, the casino hosted a massive 16-day festival featuring the K Poker Cup (KPC) x Long Poker Tour (LPT) followed immediately by the debut of the King Poker Cup, a premium high-stakes series featuring buy-ins up to $30,000. These series, alongside the Red Dragon Poker Tour and Gods of Poker (GOP) , ensure that LES A remains a year-round destination for competitive play.
