Koon To Spread Awareness of Triton Super High Roller Series

Published on January 26th, 2019 2:20 pm EST

Earlier this week, Triton Poker announced that they had signed Jason Koon to serve as their new brand ambassador.

As part of the deal, Koon will be working to spread awareness of the Triton Poker brand and the Triton Super High Roller Series, as well as the game of poker in general in Asia.

The appointment was a "no-brainer" for Triton Poker, as Koon is one of the most successful and respected poker players in the world.

As of this moment, Koon has $23,359,219 in total lifetime tournament cashes, putting him at 16th on the all-time money list.

2018 was a particularly great year for Koon, as he cashed for over $8 million. This included four Triton Poker final table appearances, including a win in the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series in Montenegro for $3,579,836 and a fifth place finish in the Triton Super High Roller Series in Jeju for $1,079,443.

Koon is well-liked, well-spoken and an extremely successful high buy-in tournament player, so Triton Poker electing to ink him to a deal is not a surprise at all.

As part of the ambassadorship deal, Koon will be playing at all of the Triton Poker stops this year, starting with the event in Jeju, South Korea, which gets underway on March 2nd.

Triton Poker has not yet announced the details of the tournament that promises to feature the "biggest buy-in in poker history". The full release of Triton Poker's 2019 schedule may be coming during the Triton Poker Jeju festival, which will run from March 2nd to March 9th.
