Two trophies, five final tables, $2.4M cashed - and the Main Event hasn't started

Two trophies in three days. Five final tables. $2.4M cashed across the first five events. And the Main Event hasn't even started.

Fedor Holz returned to the Triton stage tonight for the first time in a year and walked straight back into the winner's circle. The $40K NLH Mystery Bounty - Event #5 of Triton Montenegro 2026 - belongs to him. $528,811 for first place, 10 bounty envelopes still in his pocket for tomorrow's draw, and his fifth Triton title etched into the trophy cabinet.

It's the fourth event in a row with a Pokercode participant at the final table - every event so far. And the second to end with a trophy.

The run to the final two

Fedor closed out the final four with the kind of clinical poker that built his name. Down to seven, he flopped a full house with 9-7 to send Orpen Kisacikoglu to the rail. Four-handed, his queens held against Leonard Maue's ace-five.

From three-handed to heads-up with one lucky flop

Fedor 4-bet shoved pocket threes from the button. Nick Petrangelo called off his 4.4M with pocket tens. The flop dropped a three. A set on the first card. A hand later it was heads-up.

After an intense heads-up between two expert players, Fedor won with this hand

Big blind for Fedor, Q-T offsuit. Flop K-9-Q with two spades. Turn the 5 of spades. River the king of hearts pairing the board. Ponakovs shoved with 10-3 - just a pair of tens - and Fedor called with two pair. Game over.

Mario got there first

Two days earlier, Mario Mosboeck did the same thing in Event #3. The $30K NLH 8-Handed - 133 entries, $3.99M prize pool - went to the Austrian for $928,000 over Danny Tang heads-up. Mario's fourth Triton title. His career live earnings are now north of $17.6M.

Same week. Same trophy cabinet. Different door.

The Pokercode leaderboard at Triton Montenegro 2026

Five events in. Two titles. Five final tables. Across seven Pokercode cashes already, the team has banked $2,452,811.

Fabian Niederreiter made his Triton debut in Event #1 - and ran it straight to the final table alongside Samuel Mullur, the only Austrian inside the top three on the all-time live money list. Hannes Jeschka followed it up the next day with a final-table run of his own in Event #2. Curtis Knight - the Discord-commenter-turned-Triton-regular - bagged $265k in the same event before Mario put the first trophy on the wall.

Still in the mix

The series is barely halfway through. Matthias Eibinger - five Triton titles, Austria's #1 all-time - is still grinding. Tom Fuchs (WSOP Paradise $50K High Roller champion, $1.29M) is here. Emilien Pitavy of the #s00n crew is here. Curtis Knight has more bullets to fire. Fedor still has the 10 bounty envelopes to pull tomorrow.

Two trophies, five final tables, $2.45M, and the Main Event hasn't even started yet.
