The Triton Poker Super High Roller Series (SHRS) Montenegro has delivered a spectacular week of world-class poker action, shattering records and awarding massive prizes to the champions. One of the biggest winners crowned recently at the series was Jesse Lonis, who captured his career-best score and third Triton trophy in the $100K Main Event.
Meanwhile, Triton’s most decorated player, Jason Koon, extended his legacy by winning a record-setting 11th title, and Punnat Punsri broke through in pot-limit Omaha, earning his first PLO title and fourth Triton victory overall. Here’s a quick recap of their Triton victories.
Jesse Lonis Takes Down Triton Poker SHRS Main Event
Just a few days after taking down the Mystery Bounty Event at the Triton Poker SHRS Montenegro, U.S. pro Jesse Lonis won Event #11: $100K Triton Poker SHRS Main Event.
He earned a career-best $3,446,298 paycheck, his third Triton trophy, and a luxurious Jacob & Co. watch for becoming a Main Event champion. With the victory, Lonis pushed his lifetime poker earnings past $20 million.
The $100K buy-in Triton Main Event attracted a massive 180-entry field, generating a total prize pool of $18 million, paid out to the top 31 finishers. Team India’s Santhosh Suvarna finished 7th to collect $643,000. Wai Kiat Lee finished on the podium, pocketing $1,807,000.
Heads-Up
The heads-up match was quick, as 2024 Triton Montenegro Champion Mikalai Vaskeboinikau held just 8 BBs against Lonis’s 37 BBs. After a few pots, both players struck a deal, leaving $125,000 and the trophy for the eventual winner.
The very next hand turned out to be the final one. Vaskeboinikau shoved with queen-jack of spades, and Lonis called with king-ten. The board favored Lonis, who was crowned the newest Triton Main Event Champion, defeating the reigning titleholder.
Vaskeboinikau ended up as the runner-up, locking up an impressive $2,927,702.
