For ten days now, we've been bringing you news from the premiere stop of the Triton Super High Roller Series in Monte Carlo, where this luxurious series once again attracted the creme de la creme of poker world. Day by day we reveal the names of the new owners of the three-pronged trophy, which yesterday ended up in the hands of Danny Tang for the fifth time.
$25k GGMillion$ Live
Another event that offered players a chance to win the title was the 25,000 GGMillion$ Live. It became a record thanks to 187 entries, and 31 players were happy about it, as the prize pool worth $4,657,000 was distributed among them. The largest shares from this pot went to the accounts of the participants of the final table, among which Paul Phua, Ben Heath and Yulian Bogdanov were not missing.
Rounding out the international table was an all-Malaysian heads-up pitting Hing Yang Chow against Webster Lim. Chow already had one title from the PLO event in Montenegro 2019, his opponent Lim already had two, one of which was from the same tournament in Vietnam. Even though Lim went to HU with a 2-1 advantage, the players agreed to a deal that netted them $859,893 (Lim) and $760,107 (Chow).
Final playoff
The subsequent playoff for the title, trophy and extra $40,000 turned out better for Webster Lim, who lost his chip lead right at the start of HU, but managed to get it back to his side after a double-up. The final point of the tournament was the Ks7c vs 7h7d match, where Lim hit his trojuter right on the flop and thus definitively sealed his third Triton title.
