The wait is over. The Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju II officially gets underway today, with some of the biggest names in poker descending on South Korea for two weeks of elite nosebleed-stakes action.
From today through September 17, PokerNews will be on the ground at Les A Casino on beautiful Jeju Island, bringing you the best of the action from the festival in our daily highlights blog.
We'll be keeping an eye on everything happening around the tables, from big hands and huge pots to the latest gossip, standout performances and general megastar action. Whether you're following the tournament from home or keeping tabs on your favorite players, this is the place to check in throughout the festival.
And that's not all. Keep an eye on the PokerNews social channels for the best clips and moments from Jeju, as our team captures the action away from the live reporting table too.
Follow Three of the Biggest Events With Live Reporting on PokerNews
While we'll be bringing you daily highlights from across the festival, PokerNews will also be providing live reporting from three of Jeju's biggest events.
Those events are the:
- $200,000 Triton Invitational, September 12-14
- $100,000 NLH Main Event, September 14-16
- $150,000 10th Anniversary Special, September 16-17
The $200,000 Invitational is the first of the trio, bringing together an elite field of invited players and some of the biggest names in the game for the very first time in Asia.
The $100,000 Main Event follows shortly afterwards, before reporting on Triton's decade celebration event with the $150,000 10th Anniversary Special.
Day 1 Schedule: Friday, September 4
The opening day gets underway at 1:00 p.m. local time with Event #1, the $15,000 Triton NLH 8-Handed.
| Time | Event | Buy-In |
|---|---|---|
| 1:00 PM | #1 Triton NLH - 8-Handed (Day 1) | $15,000 |
It's the first chance to see which of poker's biggest stars have made the trip to Jeju, with the opening event kicking off a packed 14-day schedule.
Don't Miss the Triton Fantasy App
There's another reason to keep an eye on the action over the next fortnight, with the free-to-play Triton Fantasy app getting underway on Saturday for Day 2 of Friday's $15,000 opening event.
