The Triton Super High Roller Series has confirmed details of its 10-year anniversary Ivan Leow Player of the Year race, along with a brand-new season leaderboard for Triton ONE.

Both competitions kick off in Jeju this March, with high-stakes crushers and mid-stakes grinders alike now chasing season-long titles. The race is on.

$200K Guaranteed for Ivan Leow Player of the Year

Ten years of Triton has produced some of the biggest prize pools and toughest final tables in the game. Now the series is putting extra weight behind its most prestigious title.

The 2026 Ivan Leow Player of the Year comes with:

• $200,000 guaranteed to the overall winner
• Top 10 players on the leaderboard getting paid for the first time
• A dynamic prize pool structure across the season

The 2024/25 race showed exactly what it takes to win it.

Artur Martirosian topped the standings after a relentless year on the circuit. He recorded 28 Triton cashes in 2025 alone, besting the 19 total cashes he had since making his debut to the start of last season

His biggest score of the season came at Jeju I, where he finished third in the $100,000 No-Limit Hold’em Main Event for $2,644,000. In May, at the Montenegro stop, he added another huge result with a third-place finish in the $100,000 PLO Main Event for $1,080,000.

He also picked up three tournament wins, along with making 11 final table appearances.

By season’s end, Martirosian had cashed for more than $7.7 million in Triton events and accumulated 5,296 POY points to secure the crown.

Triton ONE Gets Its Own Season Race

While the Super High Roller regulars chase the $200K top prize, Triton’s newer tour has its own leaderboard to fight over.

Triton ONE debuted in July 2025 as a mid-stakes major under the Triton umbrella. In 2026, it introduces Player ONE, a season-long race for the tour’s most consistent performer.

What’s on the line?

• $66,000 in rewards
• Points earned exclusively in Triton ONE events
• An extra 100 points awarded to each stop’s Player of the Festival

The scoring system factors in buy-in level, field size, finishing position, entries and re-entries, and whether you cash.

The Player ONE champion will be crowned at season’s end, with the first points handed out in Jeju from March 5.
