Thomas Bichon emerged as winner of the first WPT Cyprus event. Bichon twice final tabled at the Bellagio Cup earlier this year going out in 4th and 5th but his time at final tables must have paid off as he was able to finally snatch the top spot in Cyprus. Bichon found himself heads-up with Uri Keidar who played a fantastic game after chipping up early in the event.
For his efforts Bichon takes home $579,165.
