Trident Poker Series, an independent Singapore-based live poker event organiser, has confirmed plans for its second festival, to be held aboard the World Legacy cruise vessel from 4 to 6 December 2026.
The event follows the organiser’s inaugural edition, which took place on the same ship in January 2026. The December programme is set to include a Main Event with total entry of S$700, a Deepstack Turbo priced at S$350, and a Mystery Bounty tournament at S$500, alongside cross-border community participation from players across the region.
Cross-border partnerships
Trident Poker Series says it works with community partners in Malaysia and South Korea, along with an official media partner in Thailand. The organiser describes the format, staging a multi-day poker tournament aboard a travelling vessel rather than within a fixed casino venue, as requiring close coordination between organisers, community groups and media partners across different jurisdictions.
Seeking venue partnerships
According to the organiser, the next stage of its development involves pursuing operator-led venue collaborations in other parts of Asia, though no such partnerships have yet been confirmed. Trident Poker Series has indicated it can supply photographs and results from the January tournament for verification purposes.
