High Roller and Super High Roller poker tournaments are nothing new; they appear on the schedules of almost every major live tour. However, when you think about Super High Roller events, one name immediately springs to mind: the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series.
Triton Poker ran its first event in 2016, a single HK$490,000 No-Limit Hold'em tournament in Manila. The series has since gone from strength to strength, adding more stops and events each year, culminating in an incredible 2024 that saw the world's best players head to four destinations and battle it out across 47 events.
Despite its relevant infancy (remember that the tour is only eight years old), nobody in the poker industry does Super High Rollers better than Triton Poker. The tour attracts the biggest names, generates the biggest prize pools, has the best streaming coverage, and is now undoubtedly the de facto global Super High Roller series.
Massive prize pools aside, the best thing about Triton Poker is it treats its players like poker royalty. Festivals take place in the most luxurious settings, and the players are left wanting for nothing. Everyone who plays on the Triton Poker circuit is considered a VIP. Kate Badurek is the Triton Poker VIP Players Services guru. Badurek arranges complimentary accommodation, food and drink, airport transfers, and more.
Speaking to the Triton Poker blog, Budarek said, "These players spend so much money, and the deal they get is something they deserve. I was to make sure that they're super happy. They're here for a long time, and they have a right to be comfortable. Some of the players have PAs, but many of them don't. So that's what I am. I hope they see me as their PA. They can ask me for anything they need. Everyone is super appreciative of what our VIP services do."
2024 Triton Poker Series in Review
Triton Poker awarded an incredible $392,025,000 across 47 events in 2024 alone. Compare that to the 2024 WSOP, which paid out $437,278,354 across 99 live events, and you can see why Triton is so highly thought of in the poker community.
