Nick Schulman, one of the 2025 inductees in the Poker Hall of Fame, has been confirmed in one of the early pairings for the $100K No-Limit Hold'em Invitational at the upcoming Onyx Super High Roller Series.
The Onyx SHRS is a 13-event series with $19 million in guarantees that plays out at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel in North Cyprus from August 9-21. Buy-ins range from $10,000 up to $100,000. The two biggest buy-ins are the Invitational events, with the $100K NLH Invitational playing August 16-18 and the $100K PLO Invitational playing August 19-21.
The Invitationals follow the Triton Poker playbook, with entry restricted to pairs of players. Pros need an invitation from a VIP.
Four pairs of players have already been announced for the $100K NLH Invitational, including Schulman, who has been invited by $25K Fantasy owner and player Eric Wasserson. Four pairings have been confirmed so far:
- Rob Yong (VIP) & Mikita Badziakouski (pro)
- Maher Nouria (VIP) & Mehdi Chaoui (pro)
- Sinan Unlu (VIP) & Matthias Eibinger (pro)
- Eric Wasserson (VIP) & Nick Schulman (pro)
- Armin Ghojehvand (VIP) & Phil Ivey (pro)
Onyx Super High Roller Series schedule
The Onyx SHRS has teamed up with Triton Poker to offer a $110,000 package to Triton Jeju for the Player of the Series.
Players will earn points for every open event they enter, and the player with the most points at the end wins the Triton package ($100K buy-in and $10K travel). The two Invitationals are not part of this promotion.
