Inside Triton Poker’s 2026 Schedule: Stops, Formats, and Major Events
Any poker tournament schedule tells you where the tour is headed next. But Triton Poker’s is worth following for reasons beyond logistics. Triton’s stops bring together six-figure buy-ins, elite fields, and specialist formats that are rarely found outside the high-roller circuit.
The first event of Triton’s 2026 season was a Jeju festival that ran from March into April, followed by the 18-event Montenegro series from May 13 to 28. Both are now complete, with Jeju producing 23 champions and buy-ins reaching $200,000.
The remaining schedule is concentrated in the second half of the year. Triton returns to Jeju from September 4 to 18 before moving to Northern Cyprus in November, where Triton ONE is scheduled for November 5 to 15, and the Super High Roller Series follows from November 15 to 30.
At this stage, Triton’s 2026 season is partly a review and partly a preview.
The Triton 2026 Season So Far
Triton’s 2026 season got moving in Jeju, where the March festival combined Triton ONE events with a 23-event Super High Roller Series. The schedule covered No-Limit Hold’em (NLH), PLO, bounty formats, and the $150,000 10th Anniversary Event. None other than the co-founder of the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series, Paul Phua, won the anniversary event, with Ben Tollerene winning the $100,000 NLH Main Event and Matthias Eibinger taking down the $100,000 PLO Main Event. Dan Dvoress also closed the festival by winning the $100,000 Short Deck event.
Next came Montenegro in May with another 18-event festival. PLO featured heavily toward the end of the schedule, including the $50,000 Mystery Bounty, $75,000 6-Handed, and $25,000 Bounty Quattro events. Dvoress became the first player to win three events at the same Triton stop, while Matthias Eibinger added another PLO title to his growing record.

The early festivals make clear that Triton doesn’t rely on NLH alone. Mixed formats, Short Deck, PLO, and high-buy-in feature events are all established parts of the schedule, giving elite players different strategic problems to solve in the remaining 2026 stops.
September Jeju – Triton Returns to Les A Casino
Next stop? A return to Jeju, with the second 2026 festival in the city scheduled for September 4 to 17 at Les A Casino, Jeju Shinhwa World. Triton’s official event page confirms a 14-day window, making it the next major Super High Roller Series stop on the calendar.
The schedule builds toward several of the circuit’s biggest events. The $200,000 Triton Invitational runs from September 12 to 14—an exclusive tournament format that’s unique to the Triton Poker Series. Next is the Triton Main Event starting in September, with a $100,000 buy-in and a deep structure with 50-minute levels. The penultimate event is another $150,000 10th Anniversary Special, with those taking the seat before the start of the event receiving a 50% discount on entry fees.
Since Triton has already used Jeju for its first festival of the year, September marks a second opportunity to stage major events at one of its established venues. Jeju’s second visit marks a point where the remaining schedule begins to compress around the season’s marquee tournaments and biggest buy-ins.
Ending the 2026 Season in Northern Cyprus
Triton’s final stretch will take place in Northern Cyprus, at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel in Kyrenia. Triton ONE will run from November 4 to 15, followed immediately by the Triton Super High Roller Series Northern Cyprus from November 15 to 28.
The November stop won’t be a single closing festival but will follow the same two-stage structure as other stops in the calendar. That structure allows Triton to cater to players looking for lower buy-ins as well as specialists focused on the circuit’s biggest events. Triton ONE is designed around more accessible buy-ins than the flagship series. The full event schedule for both segments of the Northern Cyprus stop has yet to be published, so treat any specific event formats and headline tournaments as pending confirmation.
The Different Triton Formats
Although Triton’s schedule isn’t built around a single version of poker, No Limit Hold’em remains the most familiar, with players able to wager any amount of chips at any point in the hand, including moving all-in. In Pot-Limit Omaha, each player receives four hole cards and needs to use exactly two of them with three community cards. Bets are also capped by the pot size, creating a different betting structure from NLH.
Short Deck changes the underlying structure by removing low cards from the deck. That changes the distribution of hands and makes familiar Hold’em assumptions less applicable. For players used to standard Hold’em, the format provides a distinct test without presenting a completely different game.
Triton’s Invitational events introduce another variation, pairing invited recreational or business players with established pros. These tournaments are a recurring part of the circuit and add another dimension beyond the standard open-entry events.
Then there’s Triton ONE, the related series with a lower buy-in profile, which makes the Triton experience accessible to a broader range of players. Together, these formats make the rest of the season more than NLH results. The ability to move between different rules, structures, and buy-in levels is part of what makes Triton’s schedule distinct.
The Stakes of the Final Stops
The remaining festivals will help define the closing months of Triton’s 2026 season. The biggest events naturally carry the most potential for large cashes, with the $200,000 Triton Invitational in September standing out among confirmed events. Jeju’s $150,000 10th Anniversary Special is another major buy-in, although the size of its eventual prize pool and field will depend on entries. Paul Phua’s $3.2 million win in the first edition of the Anniversary Special gives the second edition some history to build on.
There’s also room for specialists to make their mark—or even more of one. With PLO, NLH, and Short Deck represented across the season, players who perform particularly well in one format can add a distinctive title to their 2026 results. All November festivals in Northern Cyprus will then provide the last opportunity for players to add major results before next year.
All these events could become important reference points in the season’s coverage, especially if they produce notable scores. For now, the clearest point is that Triton still has several significant tournaments to run, leaving the final stretch open to new storylines.
Triton 2026’s Road Ahead
Triton’s 2026 events have already built a substantial record. For players, fans, and anyone following the circuit, the rest of the year is packed with exciting formats, buy-ins, and chances for more standout results before the year ends. But tournament schedules are still subject to change and release, especially for the Northern Cyprus festivals. Anyone planning travel, coverage, or participation should check Triton’s official channels for the latest requirements, dates, and broadcast information before making plans.
