The WPT Cyprus is expected to be televised regionally and is part of the European flare that is characterising the WPT this summer. In May the WPT was in Venice, and it is currently in Barcelona. Directly prior to visiting Cyprus, the WPT will be in Slovakia; following Cyprus it will return to the USA briefly before moving to Marrakech, after which it will return State-side for the rest of the season.
