The race to become the first two-time Triton One champion is officially over. Ngo Khoa Anh, who took down a $2,000 eight max event at the tour’s inaugural stop last fall, has won his second trident trophy. The Vietnamese player overcame a field of 347 entries in the 2026 Triton One Jeju $10,000 seven max event to earn the hardware and a career-best score of $612,000.
With this triumph, Ngo grew his lifetime haul to more than $2 million, with $764,702 coming from his two titles and three other cashes in Triton events.
“I’m speechless, to be honest,” Ngo told Triton reporters after his win. “It’s beyond any expectation.”
This victory came with 1,200 Card Player Player of the Year points. It was the first win and third final-table finish of the year for Ngo, who also placed fourth in two Asian Poker Tour Jeju Classic events in February for over $220,000 and 510 points, collectively. With 1,710 total points, he now sits just outside the top 10 in the 2026 POY standings presented by CoinPoker.
The strong turnout for this event built a prize pool worth more than $3.1 million, with the top 55 finishers all earning a share. Among those to run deep were recent Triton One $3,000 QQPK Genesis champion Nguyen Dung (36th), Nacho Barbero (34th), Aliaksandr Shylko (22nd), and Punnat Punsri (15th).
The top seven finishers all secured six-figure paydays, including eventual runner-up Wang Yang ($388,000). The Chinese player now has nearly $1.2 million in recorded scores after this impressive showing.

2024 World Series of Poker Paradise super main event champion Yinan Zhou, who finished second in the QQPK Genesis tournament a few days earlier for $338,000, placed fifth in this event for $180,000. Zhou now sits in 12th place in the POY standings thanks to his pair of deep runs at this festival.
