The Coin Rivet Invitational is a $200,000 buy-in single reentry tournament, similar to the record-breaking 2019 Triton Million London, which was won by Aaron Zhang for $16.7 million. It will be held in Merit Royal Diamond, North Cyprus from September 10-12.

The tournament pairs up professional and recreational players, with both players paying the $200K entry fee. The first day of action sees the two player types separated from each other, and on Day 2 the field will come together. Which players falls under the professional or recreational category is determined by a special committee made up of GGPoker Ambassador Jason Koon, Paul Phua and Rob Yong.

The event is limited to 64 entries and will consist of 32 recreational and 32 professional players. A plenty of big names have already signed up to this interesting event, for example 2022 WSOP Main Event winner Espen Jorstad, Phil Ivey, Ben Lamb and Steve O'Dwyer already paired up.

"Every player that plays a Triton Poker Series event is a VIP and we are looking forward to this new event in the schedule and returning to Merit Resorts for the opening of their brand new poker room and hotel. All the action will be live streamed in true Triton Series style by our great team,” said Andy Wong, CEO of the Triton Poker Series.
