Ike Haxton, one of the greatest players in tournament poker, has exited the $25k Titi Poker after an all-in collision with Khoa Anh Ngo.
Ngo, from the button, raised to 1,200,000 and Haxton replied with a three-bet to 5,200,000. When Ngo shoved, Haxton called for his tournament life and the cards were on their backs.
Ike Haxton: A♦5♦
Khoa Anh Ngo: A♠7♥
Ngo was ahead and went even further clear on the 9♣7♣4♣ flop. When the Q♣ turn and 9♥ river completed the board, his victory was assured and Haxton had to exit to the payout desk to pick up yet another huge score at Triton.
Aren Bezhanyan won't be adding a second Triton title to his very impressive record on poker's elite high-stakes tour, after busting in 4th for a huge $417,000 on today's $25k Titi Poker final day.
Bezhanyan raised from the under the gun to 1,100,000, before chip leader Khoa Anh Ngo three-bet to 3,500,000. Bezhanyan moved in for his tournament life and Ngo made the call.
Aren Bezhanyan: Q♥Q♣
Khoa Anh Ngo: J♠9♠
Bezhanyan was well-ahead, but Ngo was far from dead. The flop of 7♠9♥8♠ put both a flush draw and a straight draw on the board for Ngo, and he hit the flush when the 4♠ turn came and 8♦ completed the board.
A tough one to take for start of the day chip leader David Coleman, who has made an early exit at the final table of the $25k Titi Poker.
The American had endured a rough start to the day and that became terminal when Aren Bezhanyan raised to 800,000 and Coleman three-bet to 4,000,000 before both players got it all-in.
David Coleman: K♠Q♣
Aren Bezhanyan: A♠K♣
The runout was J♥6♥7♣9♦8♣ and Coleman's tournament run came to an end. He collected a payout of $330,000, but may well have felt it could have been more.
The first elimination of the day at the $25k Titi Poker final table has been confirmed as British grinder Joe Hindry.
Hindry moved all-in for his remaining 1,900,000 and found a caller in Anatoly Filatov on the button.
Joe Hindry: K♦9♠
Anatoly Filatov: K♥Q♠
Filatov had Hindry covered by over 5:1, and had him dominated preflop too. The runout of J♦6♣6♦7♠10♠ was clean for the Russian, and he raked in the pot while Hindry was sent to the rail.
Hindry made a final table in only his third-ever Triton event and the biggest score of his career to date, banking $250,000 for a super deep run.
Khoa Anh Ngo is looking for his first Triton Super High Roller Series title to add to being the only two-time Triton ONE champion in history, and he's made a fast start in that endeavour today.
The Vietnamese player faced an early position raise from chip leader David Coleman holding K♦J♦, and after Ngo three-bet his A♠A♣ for 1,600,000, Coleman shoved and Ngo made the call.
After the board ran out 8♠3♦6♣K♠10♣, Ngo's bullets held and he scored a huge double to surge to the top of the chip counts early on the third and final day.
The players are ready, the Triton commentary team is ready - it's time to find out who wins the first million-dollar prize of the series here in Jeju.
With four Triton Super High Roller Series champions and a two-time Triton ONE champion, there's no shortage of superstar talent on display. And you can watch it all below:
The Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju II continues in style today with two trophies set to be handed out at Les A Casino, as both the $25,000 NLH Titi Poker and $25,000 NLH 8-Handed reach their big-money conclusions.
The Titi Poker event is down to its final six, with David Coleman leading the way after a dramatic Day 2 that saw the likes of Phil Ivey and Laszlo Bujtas hit the rail. Coleman has 11,875,000 chips, narrowly ahead of Triton PoY contender Isaac Haxton on 11,075,000, while Aren Bezhanyan and Anatoly Filatov are also within striking distance.
There is $1,090,000 waiting for the winner (the first seven-figure score of the series), with the final six guaranteed and an astonishing $250,000 or more.
Meanwhile, the second $25,000 event of the day is also heading towards a champion. The $25,000 NLHE 8-Handed attracted 131 entries and is down to its final 17 players, with Brandon Wilson holding a clear lead on 3,580,000 chips. Lei Yu sits second, followed by Vladas Tamasauskas and Seth Davies.
Wilson already made his mark by bursting the bubble, and the remaining players are now chasing a $761,000 first prize. Among them includes Triton debutant Reda Achnit, whose remarkable story is turning heads here in Jeju after the online qualifier and microstakes player turned a freeroll into a minimum $46,000 payout against the greatest players in the world. How far can Achnit go today?
Remember, you can draft your final day team for this one with the Triton Fantasy game on the Triton Plus Poker app.

The story of the series so far has been that of new Triton winners, with Klemens Roiter and Alex Theologis achieving dream first-time victories. Will we see an established face or yet another brand-new champion join them today?
From a field of 131, just 17 players remain in Event #5: $25,000 NLHE 8-Handed at the Triton Jeju SHRS.
Leading the final three tables is Brandon Wilson, with clear water between him and Lei Yu in second place.
Wilson was responsible for bursting the money bubble to bring Day 1 to a close, sending Hannes Jeschka to the rail and locking up $38,000 for himself and the remaining players.
At that point, Seth Davies had held the chip lead over Wilson, but he slipped back to sit fourth in chips by the end of the day.
