EPT Cyprus Eureka Champs Side-by-Side
EPT Cyprus Eureka $1,100 Main Event and $2,200 High Roller winners Leo Worthington-Leese and Diogo Coelho are on the same table, sat in the one and eight seat respectively.
Leese took home $314,030 from the $2,662,850 prizepool for his efforts. He finished third in the EPT Monte Carlo Main Event this year for $437,918, so he went two better to claim his first EPT trophy.
Coelho's triumph came on on the heels of a near miss at the 2024 WSOP Main Event, where he bowed out in 10th place for $800,000, just shy of the final table. In Cyprus, he redeemed himself by defeating Italy's Michele Guerrini heads-up, following a deal that saw Coelho claim $357,048 along with the Golden Shard.
Coelho was in action, three-betting to 13,000 from the big blind after Simeon Spasov opened to 4,000 from the button. Spasov called and then called Coelho's continuation bet of 7,500 on the J?8?6? flop. Coelho then check-called for 6,000 on the 2? turn before the 6? river checked through to showdown.
Coelho tabled K?2? for sixes and deuces, and Spasov couldn't show anything better, and he mucked his hand.
