Only 24 Players Remain in the Main Event, $1,000,000 Prize for the Winner!
The series' centerpiece, Event #10: $5,300 No Limit Hold'em – WSOPC Main Event, is entering its final stages. After three thrilling days, just 24 players remain, battling for a spot at the final table. The winner of this record-setting tournament will receive a prestigious ring and the top prize of $1,000,000.
The tournament surpassed the guaranteed $5 million prizepool, reaching $6,860,000 with 1,372 entries. The prizepool and the million-dollar top prize have broken records for live events in WSOPC history.
Heading into Day 4 as chipleader is Norway's Jon Kyte, with a stack of 5.5 million chips (68 BB), eyeing his second WSOPC ring. For Kyte, it's a déjà vu moment at Cyprus; he entered the penultimate day of the Mini Main Event as the chipleader from the final 24. He ultimately finished 11th, and we are keen to see how he applies this recent experience.
Right on his heels are Romania's Andrei Spataru and seasoned Austrian Daniel Rezaei. Among the front-runners are also home favorite Georgios Tsoulokftas, a three-time WSOPC ring holder, and Russia’s Aleksandr Razinkov, who already captured a ring in Event #8.
You can follow the race to the final table live on the official WSOP YouTube channel, streaming Day 4 and the final day live.

Yinan Zhou Triumphs in Super Turbo Bounty
Once again, Chinese pro Yinan Zhou has showcased his skills by clinching the title in the fast-paced Event #7: $5,000 Super Turbo Bounty NLH. He outperformed 76 entries to secure $60,600, his first WSOPC gold ring, and a WSOP Paradise package.
Already a familiar name on the global poker stage, just last year Zhou conquered the WSOP Paradise Main Event in the Bahamas, earning his first WSOP bracelet and a $6,000,000 prize. This 25-year-old quickly positioned himself among the top 10 Chinese earners in live tournaments. His victory at the WSOP Super Circuit Cyprus reaffirms that Zhou could well be adding more titles in the coming years.
The Super Turbo Bounty final table was stacked with notable names and international stars. German Claas Segebrecht finished second, close to adding a second ring to his two WSOP bracelets. Fahredin Mustafov, after winning the Super High Roller, once again made it to the top 5.
