There were 52 players going into the final day and Fedor Holz was the chip leader. Fedor also sat at the final table, where Kiat Lee was already the chipleader with a stack of 4,880,000. At the other end was Christoph Vogelsang with just six blinds.

Vogelsang eventually managed to survive one payjump to finish in 8th place. With the last four players in the hand, a debate over the deal began and ended successfully. At this point, Michael Soyza was the huge chipleader, securing the largest amount of $2,305,000. Also in the deal was Pieter Aerts who secured $1,924,587, Mario Mosböck secured $1,544,316 and Fedor Holz had a sure amount of $1,528,097. However, there was still the trophy, the title and the $310,000 prize for the winner to play for.

Just before the final heads-up, Fedor Holz was eliminated and Michael Soyza and Pieter Aerts faced each other in heads-up play. The game went on for a long time and the chips were moved from side to side. Aerts at one point was down to just 4 blinds, but eventually managed to turn the hand over. Pieter Aerts became the new Triton champion and won his second Triton title. He also added $2,234,587 in prize money.

Two tournaments saw their champion yesterday

The second tournament to recognize a winner yesterday is the one-day NLH Turbo Bounty Quattro with a buy-in of $31,200. It brought 105 entries and a prizepool of $3,150,000, with $531,000 awaiting the winner.

Sitting at the final table as chipleader was Jamil Wakil with a stack of 4,850,000. At the other end were Artur Martirosyan (7bb) and Nikita Kuznetsov (10bb).

Interestingly, it was this pair with the smallest stack who eventually met together in the final heads-up. Martirosian even knocked out 6 players, within five hands. Artur was able to defeat Nikita in the end as well, taking home $531,000 plus $360,000 in bounties. Martirosian has played every Triton Series stop since 2022, but it wasn't until this night that he was able to win his first trophy. Kuznetsov took home $358,000 for second place and $80,000 in bounties.

The Mystery Bounty tournament was won two days ago by Roman Hrabec, who also had 8 envelopes. In the end, he took home an additional $560,000 to his original $622,019. Samuel Mullur took second place here, earning $526,981 and adding a $520,000 bounty. The third largest bounty amount went to Artur Martirosian, who pocketed $480,000.
