Many of the best high-stakes poker players in the world are in southeast Asia right now for the 2023 Triton Super High Roller Series Vietnam, a series consisting of more than a dozen events with buy-ins ranging from $15,000 to $100,000.
The series got underway on March 1 and has awarded a few seven-figure prizes. Vietnam native Dao Phu took down Event #6: $50,000 NLH 8-Handed for $1.7 million while Turkey's Orpen Kisacikoglu went on to win Event #7: $75,000 NLH 8-Handed for $1.8 million.
The two are the largest winners of the series so far, but other notable high rollers to home trophies include Argentina's Nacho Barbero (Event #2: $15,000 NLH 7-Handed - $600,000), Jans Arends of The Netherlands (Event #5: $30,000 NLH 7-Handed - $921,178) and Triton newcomer Andrew Leathem (Event #8: $25,000 Turbo NLH - $670,000)
Currently underway is the $100,000 buy-in Main Event, which kicked off on March 8 and will play for three days as players start off with 250 big blinds.
