Phil Ivey Takes Home Fifth Triton Title in London

The fan favorite Phil Ivey has once again showcased his poker mastery, bagging his fifth Triton title at the $25,000 Short Deck Turbo event, his second at the 2023 Triton London series.

This win propels Ivey to second place on the all-time champions list, with only Jason Koon now ahead of him, who recently won his ninth title. Expressing his enduring love for the game, Ivey shared in the winner’s interview: “I love the game of poker, I always have. Hopefully, I’ll get a few more.”

It might have been a smaller event for Triton’s standard, with 33 entries and the entire event played in one day, but no one is going to turn down the $280,500 first-place prize.
