Player ONE Winner to Receive $66,000 in Tournament Credits
Triton ONE players earn points toward the annual Player ONE leaderboard, with $66,000 in tournament credits going to the top-ranked player at the end of the calendar year.
Leaderboard points depend on tournament finishing position, buy-in and field size. Players can also earn additional points through on-time registration, in-the-money finishes and additional tournament entries.

The Player of the Festival in Northern Cyprus will earn an additional 100 leaderboard points.
Previous Triton ONE Main Events in Jeju
Triton ONE was established by the Triton Poker Series to offer a lower buy-in alternative to its Super High Roller Series while retaining the brand's player services and tournament technology.
Its first two festivals took place in Jeju, South Korea, with combined prize pools totaling close to $30 million.
The inaugural Triton ONE Main Event in September 2025 drew 1,046 entries and generated a $7.6 million prize pool.
The second Main Event in March 2026 attracted 1,230 entries and built a prize pool of nearly $9 million. Zhao Wenjie won the tournament for $1.16 million.
Three Streaming Tables and Triton Poker Plus App
Three streaming tables are planned for the Northern Cyprus festival. Early tournament coverage may be limited to selected action, with full coverage planned for the in-the-money stages.
The Triton Poker Plus App provides tournament updates and player chip counts. Players on site can access real-time information, while viewers can follow updates alongside the live streams. The app is available on Apple's App Store and Google Play.
Triton Tempo will also be used at the festival. The chess-clock-style system assigns thinking time to each player and tracks their time bank as they move between tables.
Venue and Travel Information
