Triton Million Kicks Off at WSOP Paradise with $50M Prize Pool

The $500K buy-in tournament features poker's top pros and wealthy amateurs competing for a historic bracelet in the Bahamas.

The Triton Million, a $500,000 buy-in event, is part of the WSOP Paradise series, offering a record-breaking $50 million guaranteed prize pool.
The tournament pairs wealthy recreational players with top poker professionals, with 74 players competing across separate fields on Day 1 before merging on Day 2.
David Einhorn made headlines by busting on the very first hand of the tournament with a six-bet shove, losing to Jared Bleznick's pocket aces, but later re-entered.
Notable participants include poker's all-time top earners like Bryn Kenney, Justin Bonomo, and Stephen Chidwick, as well as Shaun Deeb and Daniel Negreanu, who are playing their first Triton events.
Day 2 begins today with Michael Moncek as chip leader, while late registration remains open until the start of play at midday ET.
