Early evening of Saturday, September 17, Triton Poker announced the passing of one of Malaysia’s most beloved and respected poker players, Ivan Leow. According to the post, Leow died at a prime age of 41 due to natural causes. Leow has been active around the Triton circuit since its inception, winning multiple titles from around the world time and time again.

It was only last Aug 2021 where he claimed his career-best of $2.46 million after a runner-up finish in the Super High Roller Bowl Europe Main Event. Just two months ago, Leow took down the first event of the inaugural Poker Dream festival at his home country, Malaysia and reached three other final tables.

His presence at the table will be sorely missed by all.
