With victory in the $25K Golden Decade event at Triton Montenegro on Thursday, Canada’s Daniel Dvoress has completed the ‘Triton Trident’ — wins in the three main poker variants played on the tour: No-limit hold’em, pot-limit Omaha and short deck.
The Golden Decade tournament — named to mark the 10th anniversary of the Triton Super High Roller Series — was a hold’em event that drew 146 entries, a prizepool of $3.65M, and rewarded its winner with $849K in prize money.
The final table included familiar names on the high roller circuit, including Paul Phua, Samuel Mullur and Ben Tollerene. Eventually it would be local Montenegrin player Dejan Kaladjurdjevic who ran Dvoress the closest, but the heads-up battle was short and sweet (for the Canadian, at least).
Despite there being more than 120 big blinds in play when heads-up play began, the tourney took just 20 minutes to play out.
The final hand was won by Dvoress holding ‘the dirty diaper’, , against the
of Kaladjurdjevic.
Dvoress forced the action all the way to the river, turning a straight but letting his opponent catch-up and move all-in with the losing hand.

Over $3.5 million in 2026 alone
The win comes barely a week after Dvoress’ win in the EPT Monte Carlo €25K High Roller, worth another €179K, and less than two months after he took down the $100K short deck tourney at Triton Jeju.
That win was worth $1.38M, and contributes to tournament earnings in 2026 alone of more than $3.5M.
With over $50M in lifetime tournamment winnings, Dvoress is comfortably fixed in second place on Canada’s all-time money list.
Only Daniel Negreanu sits above him in the table, on $57.6M, with Sam Greenwood a way back in 3rd on $39.4M.
Dvoress’ previous Triton victories came in a $20K short deck tourney and a $50K PLO event, both in 2023, as well as the short deck event earlier this year in Jeju.
Triton Montenegro continues through May 28 at the Maestral Resort & Casino.
