Danny Tang has received Triton Poker’s Season 3 Ivan Leow Participant of the 12 months race, ending with 3,700 factors. The 32-year-old Hong Kong resident cashed 19 instances throughout the 4 Triton Poker Tremendous Excessive Curler Sequence festivals that comprised the season, accumulating over $10.1 million in prize cash throughout these scores. Tang’s certified cashes included 13 final-table finishes and two title runs.
Tang’s wins throughout season 3 noticed him take down a $60,000 eight-max occasion in London for $1.6 million and a $50,000 eight-max occasion in Monte Carlo for one more $1,580,000. These accounted for 2 of his 4 certified seven-figure scores.
Tang is now a five-time Triton title winner, placing him in a three-way tie for second on the tour’s titles leaderboard with Mikita Badziakouski and Phil Ivey. Jason Koon, who received the POY honors in season 2, stays alone atop that listing with 10 Triton wins.
For the win, Tang was awarded $200,000 and a model new trophy, which was designed and handmade by London silversmiths Fox Silver. This POY race is called in honor of the late Ivan Leow, who sadly handed away within the fall of 2022. Leow was reportedly instrumental in Triton getting off the bottom as a founding member of the tour alongside Richard Yong and Paul Phua.
“Ivan was an amazing poker participant and an excellent higher pal to everybody at Triton,” stated Phua at Tang’s trophy ceremony. “Not a day goes by once we don’t take into consideration him, and it was vital for us to have the ability to keep in mind him with such a prestigious award.”
“I’ve to present it to Ivan trying down on us and giving me his blessing. It means loads as a result of I’m one in every of his personal guys,” stated Tang after receiving the trophy. “For me that is essentially the most prestigious award that may be received in poker proper now.”
