Triton Poker Releases Episode 1 of SHR Short Deck Cash Game
Triton Poker has officially posted the first episode of their short deck poker cash game series, entitled Triton Poker Super High Roller Series 2018. Poker fans will definitely be delighted to watch this star-studded table battling it out with a 36-card deck.
Earlier, Triton Poker released a 7-minute video showing Tom Dwan walking out after he lost a humongous pot worth $2.3 million to Malaysian high stakes player Paul Phua.
Short-deck poker, also known as 6-plus Hold’em, became popular in the East Asian high-stakes cash game circuit. Thus, it is only normal that when a high-stakes cash game event is happening in Jeju, South Korea, this new game type is included in their games roster.
Not only the deck size but also the blind structure was different from the usual Texas Hold’em game - everybody posted a ₩3 million (approx. $2,500) ante each hand, except for the player on the button, who had to pay a ₩6 million ($5,000) blind.
The biggest pot in Episode 1 was between Qiang Wang and Paul Phua, and the two ended up chopping $727,000 in half.
