EPT Cyprus Champ Bows Out
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Dare2Stream and 2023 EPT Cyprus Main Event winner Gilles Simon moved all in for 18,000 from middle position and was called by Ryhor Karapanau from the cutoff.
Gilles Simon: A♦9♠
Ryhor Karapanau: 10♥10♦
Simon had three outs and picked up more equity after the 5♦4♣2♥ flop gave him a gutshot to the wheel. The 2♦ turn paired the board, offering no help to Simon. The Q♦ river confirmed his exit and Simon wished the table good luck before heading out.
After EPT Barcelona, the EPT will be returning to Cyprus after the massive success of the inaugural event in 2023.
The 2024 version will be the same, hosted at the mesmerizing five-star Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa from October 9-20.
