Anatoly Zlotnikov Dominates Triton Montenegro, Wins Second Title

Anatoly Zlotnikov made a dominant showing at the Triton Super High Roller Series Montenegro, securing his second Triton title and earning $715,000. The Russian high roller did not lose a single all-in pot at the $25,000 no-limit hold’em eight-max final table, eliminating the last four players in quick succession.

Zlotnikov's victory was his second Triton title, the first being in 2023 at the Triton Cyprus. This win also earned him 840 Card Player Player of the Year points, placing him in 165th on the yearlong leaderboard with his third qualifying POY result of 2026.

The tournament drew 119 total entrants, generating a prize pool of $2,975,000. Notable players like Jason Koon, who was pursuing a record-extending 13th Triton title, were eliminated by Zlotnikov. Koon's elimination ended his pursuit of the record, securing Zlotnikov's dominant performance.
