In yesterday's Day 2 of the EPT Cyprus Main Event, we learned the final numbers and the amount that the winner will take home. We also saw the bubble burst and today all the players are now ITM.

The Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa is hosting the European Poker Tour Cyprus series and all eyes are on the $5,300 buy-in Main Event, where we learned the final numbers yesterday. These are slightly lower than last year.
