The tour kicks off in Jeju, South Korea from March 2 to 9, followed by four more stops in May, July, September, and November.
The 2019 tour promises to provide “more action”, “more stops than ever before” and is also set to host the biggest buy-in in poker history.
Earlier this year, some of the world’s best poker players were seen participating in the Triton Poker series including Phil Ivey, Tom Dwan, Fedor Holz, Jason Koon, Paul Phua, and many others.

PokerTube sat down with the producer of the yet unnamed film that will chronicle 2017 World Series of Poker November Niner John Hesp, as he makes his play to the final four during the WSOP Main Event.
Hesp made a name for himself at the 2017 WSOP for his bright shirts and jacket along with his Panama hat. But beyond that he stole hearts as a down to earth caravan salesman from Yorkshire who had come to Vegas to chase his dream of cashing in the WSOP Main Event.
He went on to do much more than that as he made his way all the way to the final table of the prestigious Main Event.
PokerTube’s interview shines a light onto how production is going and what we as viewers can expect from the film.

Watch: One of the Best Laydowns at PSPC, and Possibly of All Time
Thi Xoa Nguyen makes an incredible fold with a full house at the $25K buy-in PSPC event.
It was during day 2 of the history-in-making $25,000 buy-in PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship when a Vietnamese lady by the name of Thi Xua Nguyen stunned everybody by making this incredible laydown versus Athanasios Polychronopoulos, a Greek-American professional poker player with two WSOP bracelets.
220 players remained on the field when Nguyen raised from the button with Ad Qc only to get 3-bet to 37,000 by Polychronopoulos from the big blind who held a pair of Aces.
Nguyen made the call and the flop landed Ks 9s Qd. Both the players checked. The Qh on Turn improved Nguyen’s hand to trips. She bets 17,000 after Polychronopoulos checked for a second time. He made the call and the Ace of Spade gave both the players a full house.
Polychronopoulos once again checked on the river with his Aces full. Nguyen bets 50,000 leaving her 153,000 chips behind but finds herself in a check-raise-all-in situation.
This is where things go crazy!!!
After tanking for a while, Nguyen lays down Ad Qc face up—a freaking Full house!!!. Out of respect for her incredible fold, Polychronopoulos flips out Aces and was himself stunned.
Did she misread her hand? No!!! She knew what she was doing. Nguyen put him on Aces or Kings and she was bang on right!!!
The hand was caught during the live stream and obviously, the viewers glued to the stream went berserk including the commentators James Hartigan, Joe Stapleton, and Lex Veldhuis.
Nguyen eventually finished 153rd for $25,450 and Polychronopoulos also made cash but busted against Platinum Pass winner, Jussi Nevanlinna.
What is more crazier is that on day 1 Nguyen won an EPT Monte Carlo package during a random draw table giveaway.
