The Eurasion Poker Tour (EAPT) $2,200 Grand Final begins today with the first of four starting flights set to begin at noon local time here at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel and Spa. The event features a massive $2,000,000 guarantee.
Throughout the past year the EAPT has hosted events in places such as Malta, Bratislava, Barcelona and Madrid. Those events each awarded several of the top finishers a €5,000 package to Cyprus that includes a free entry into today's event.
Players will start with 200,000 chips and the blinds at 1,000/1,000 with a 1,000 big blind ante. Levels will be 40 minutes and the plan is to play 15 levels, finishing at approximately midnight local time. The fields will combine for Day 2 on May 7.
As always, stay tuned to PokerNews for all your live coverage needs for this event from the moment cards are in the air until a winner is crowned on the final day, May 8.
The start of the tournament has been delayed slightly as players filter into their seats.

Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jabrayilov Azad opened to 2,000 from under the gun and received a call from a player in the cutoff and Denis Udalsov in the big blind.
All three players checked the Q♠8♥4♠ flop leading to the 6♦ turn. Udalsov checked, Azad fired a 3,000 continuation bet, the cutoff called and Udalsov check-raised to 18,000. Azad called while the cutoff got out of the way.
On the J♥ river Udalsov bet 36,000 and this time it was enough to force a fold from Azad.

With three players seeing a board of 10♦9♣8♥ and 12,500 in the middle, Konstantin Kvon checked in the big blind and Fernando Celdran bet 2,500 from the hijack. A player on the button called and Kvon called as well.
All three players then checked the Q♥ turn and 7♦ river. Kvon tabled 8♠2♣ for a pair of eights while Celdran showed down A♥Q♦ for top pair to take the pot.
