Nível 2 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Artur Martirosian had raised a previous open to 7,000 from the button only for Albert Daher to four-bet to 20,000 in the small blind. The original opener got out of the way and Martirosian made the call.

The flop came 5♠5♥3♠ and Daher bet 8,500. Martirosian made the call

On the 4♥ turn Daher check-called a 15,000 bet from Martirosian.

The river was the 6♥ and Daher moved all in, covering Martirosian's remaining stack of 66,000. Martirosian quickly called.

Daher could only show A♠J♠ for a missed flush and straight draw while Martirosian tabled A♦A♥ for two pair, aces and fives and received a full double up.

The PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa continues with the $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em. Today’s event is the last of six $25,000 buy-in tournaments that have been hosted at EPT Cyprus. The event was originally scheduled to be a two-day event with Day 1 set to take place yesterday, October 21, but has instead been changed to a one-day event beginning at 12 p.m. local time today, October 22.

Thursday’s $25,000 NL Hold'em tournament attracted a total of 21 entries. It was Aleksejs Ponakovs who eventually lifted the trophy and claimed the $216,810 first-place prize. This was Ponakovs' second final table of the week and a career-first PokerStars silver Spadie.

Thursday's $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em Results

Place	Player	Country	Prize
1	Aleksejs Ponakovs	Latvia	$216,810
2	Daniel Smiljkovic	Germany	$136,100
3	Leon Sturm	Germany	$90,800
4	Juan Pardo	Spain	$60,500

It is highly anticipated that these finalists and many more familiar faces will resurface today for the final high-stakes event of the series.

The high rollers to find their way to the felt today will be met with a starting stack of 100,000 and will play through 30-minute levels until a winner is crowned. Those unfortunate enough to bust will be allowed to reenter an unlimited number of times, with registration closing at the end of Level 10. Approximately 15% of the field will be paid.

A shot clock will be implemented from the start of the event, with all players being given a total of six time bank chips. A singular time bank may be redeemed for 30 extra seconds of thinking time. The players who are seated at the first hand of every odd level number (3, 5, 7, etc.) will receive one extra time bank. There will be a 15-minute break every four levels.

PokerNews will be reporting live for the entirety of this $25,000 buy-in event as it plays down to a winner, so be sure to stick with the updates to keep up with all the action.
