The final day of the Triton Super High Roller Series Jeju II is here, with the $150,000 10th Anniversary Special set to crown its champion at LES A Casino.
Seth Davies leads the 26 Day 1 survivors with 951,000, narrowly ahead of Miroslav Atanasov on 888,000 and Jean-Noel Thorel on 700,000. The event has already attracted 58 entries to create an $8.7 million prize pool, although late registration remains open until play resumes.
The field is packed with 17 previous Triton champions, including recent $200K Invitational winner Joao Simao, Danny Tang, Isaac Haxton, Eelis Parssinen, Ben Tollerene, Matthias Eibinger and Dan Dvoress.
Atanasov will be looking to go better than his 12th-place finish in the $100K Main Event after jumping straight into the Anniversary Special and building the second-largest stack.
The final event of the festival, the $30,000 NLH Turbo, then gets underway at 4 p.m. local time.

There are few résumés in poker quite like Nick Schulman's. At just 41 years old, the American pro is already an eight-time WSOP bracelet winner, two-time WPT champion and Poker Hall of Famer, having spent more than two decades excelling across tournaments and high-stakes cash games.
Now, he can add a Triton Main Event title to that extraordinary list after conquering a 196-entry field at LES A Casino and defeating Bernhard Binder heads-up in a hard-fought battle for $3,854,888 — the biggest single cash of his career.
Nick Schulman limped on the button and called after Bernhard Binder made it 3,500,000 to go from the big blind.
The flop came A♥8♦2♥ and Binder continued for 1,000,000. Schulman called.
Binder sized up for a 2,000,000 bet on the 5♣ turn and Schulman again called.
The 10♦ completed the board and Binder slowed down and checked. Schulman took the initiative by moving all in, which was enough to put Binder in for his last 4,300,000.
Binder didn't like it, but he eventually stuck in a call holding K♣J♦ for king-high.
Schulman triumphantly tabled K♥K♠ for Cowboys and immediately got up to shake hands with Binder, who was eliminated in second place.

Gytis Lazauninkas opened to 1,300,000 on the button and Nick Schulman shoved from the big blind. Lazauninkas quickly called all in for 8,500,000 total and hands were revealed.
Gytis Lazauninkas: 8♣8♠
Nick Schulman: 10♣10♦
It was bad news for Lazauninkas, who was well behind with eights against Schulman's tens.
The 5♦3♥Q♣Q♦2♣ board provided Schulman with a relatively sweat-free runout and Lazauninkas was eliminated in third place.
Xu Yang moved in for his last six million from the small blind and Gytis Lazauninkas called in the big blind with a covering stack.
Xu Yang: K♥8♥
Gytis Lazauninkas: 9♦9♥
Yang would need to connect in a big way to keep his Main Event run going, but the 10♥5♠2♣J♦2♦ runout held up Lazauninkas' nines, eliminating the once chip leader in fourth place.
