In the $15k NLH 8-Handed at the 2026 Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju II, 28 players remain. Kiat Lee, Punnat Punsri, and Alex Theologis are the big stacks in the field.
Yesterday, the Triton SHR Series kicked off at Les A Casino. The $15,900 NLH 8-Handed drew 123 starters and 206 total entries. The prize pool reached $3.09 million. Thirty-four players made the money. Alisson Piekazewicz from Brazil was the last player to leave without a cash.
Day 1 ended with 28 players still in. Kiat Lee and Punnat Punsri, both Triton regulars, lead the field with 58 big blinds each. Greek pro Alex Theologis sits in third place. The minimum cash for the remaining field is $25,500, but no one here is playing just for that. The winner will walk away with $642,000, while the runner‑up gets $431,000.
