It's Time for the Triton Super High Roller Series Macau Main Event
![[user270022]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
The 2017 Triton Super High Roller Series continues this afternoon at the Galaxy Macau Hotel in Taipa, Macau after crowning the HK $250,000 6-Max champion Stefan Schillhabel earlier this morning. The focus now shifts to the HK $1,000,000 Main Event kicking off at 1 PM local time.
This is the first time the Triton Super High Roller Series has entered Asia’s largest gaming destination and the attendance shows an impressive acceptance by both local and world-class players. The 6-Max event attracted 87 entries more than both the Manila and Montenegro stops combined.
A star-studded field is expected this afternoon, fitting for a venue with Galaxy in its name. The German, Canadian, and American contingents are out in full force and the likes of Tom Dwan, Dan Cates, Paul Newey, John Juanda, Lauren Roberts, and Phil Ivey may also make an appearance.
Three former champions will also be in the field as Wai Kin Yong, Koray Aldemir, and Manig Loeser were all in the field for the 6-Max. Loeser is already running good, placing third for HK $2,660,000 in the 6-Max.
Past Results:
| Date | Location | Champion | Entries | Prize |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| July 2017 | Montenegro | Manig Loeser | 52 | HK $16,877,600 |
| February 2017 | Manila | Koray Aldemir | 39 | HK $10,032,869 |
| November 2016 | Manila | Wai Kin Yong | 62 | HK $16,135,550 |
The Main Event will play out over the course of the next three days. Day 1 features nine 60-minute levels with a starting stack of 250,000 chips. Late registration and unlimited re-entry will remain open for all of Day 1, closing after Level 10 on Thursday, approximately 2:10 PM local time.

Badziakouski Doubles Through Haxton
Nível 1
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
With just minutes left in the opening level here on Day 1, there has already been a double up.
It is unclear how many bets before Isaac Haxton's mid-position preflop raise to 13,300 but Mikita Badziakouski called on the button. The flop was 
and Haxton bet 20,000. Badziakouski raised to 55,000 and Haxton called.
The 
hit the turn and Haxton checked. Badziakouski took several minutes before moving all-in for 163,600. Haxton went into the tank and eventually came out with a call.
Badziakouski: 
Haxton: 
Haxton was drawing to a chop and unfortunately, for him, the 
on the river sent the vast majority of his chips across the table.
