As the PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus hits the halfway mark, the time to crown the next Eureka Main Event champion is upon us. Just eight players of the original 2,803 entrants will return today a 12 p.m. local time to battle it out on the green felt for the title and $386,210 first-place prize.

Leading the way is Yuan Xu, who benefitted from a late-night surge in Day 3 after eliminating two opponents en route to the final table to help him end with 15,100,000. To date, all of Xu's cashes have come from poker events in Asia, which means this will be his first in an EPT event. Xu will also add a new high score to his live-tournament earnings regardless of placement, as his previous best cash came last month for $33,659 in an event in U Series of Poker event.
