9 | Sean Rafael | ![]() | $46,000 |
10 | László Bujtás | ![]() | $39,000 |
This is the third Triton win of Martirosian’s career. His first two came at Triton Monte Carlo late in 2024: the $25K PLO Turbo Bounty Quattro ($525K) and the $30K NLHE Turbo Bounty Quattro ($891K).
Those victories set him on the path to the season title, and it appears he has succeeded. Only one event remains — the $30K PLO Turbo Bounty Quattro — and Martirosian’s point total is out of reach:
- Artur Martirosian — 5,154 points
- Alex Foxen — 4,467 points
- Punnat Punsri — 4,283 points
Points are awarded as follows: a win earns 100 points plus multipliers up to 2x for buy-in and up to 3.2x for field size. Players also earn 2 points for registering, 3 for a re-entry, and 10 for finishing in the money.

The leaderboard winner receives the trophy and $200K.
Isaac Haxton Wins $100K PLO Main Event — Nine Years to His First Triton Title

Isaac Haxton’s story shows how powerful and impartial variance can be, even for the best. Haxton has been playing Triton events since 2017. Over that span he posted 64 ITM finishes and $19.5M in cashes, reached 34 final tables, and finished runner-up 6 times before finally breaking through on Sunday.
Final Table Payouts — $100K PLO Main Event (total 116 entries)
Place | Player | Country | Prize |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Isaac Haxton | ![]() | $2,789,000 |
2 | Nacho Barbero | ![]() | $1,897,000 |
3 | Jesse Lonis | ![]() | $1,261,000 |
4 | Robert Cowen | ![]() | $1,037,000 |
5 | Rahul Byrraju | ![]() | $838,000 |
6 | Danny Tang | ![]() | $655,000 |
7 | Klemens Roiter | ![]() | $489,000 |
Haxton defeated Nacho Barbero heads-up. For Barbero, Triton ended well too — earlier he won the $30K PLO/NLH for $646K.
Ding Biao Takes $50K PLO 6-Handed for $880K

Ding Biao won this same event in Jeju in March 2024, defeating Phil Ivey heads-up. This time his final opponent was Lautaro Guerra ($625K). This victory is crucial for Ding’s series results: before this tournament he had invested $835K in buy-ins (excluding re-entries) and collected $525K in cashes.
Final Table Payouts — $50K PLO 6-handed (total 64 entries)
Place | Player | Country | Prize |
