It's time for the Final Day of the $3,000 Mystery Bounty, running as part of the PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus at the luxurious Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa. The event gets back underway at 12 p.m. local time.
There were a total of 981 entries made to the event, which gave a total prize pool of $2,664,396. This broke down to $1,683,396 in the regular prize pool and $981,000 in the bounty prize pool.
With those who made it through Day 1, as well as fresh entries before the end of late registration, 352 players came back for Day 2. That field has now been whittled down to just 18 players who are left in contention for the top prize of $298,496.
