Chris Kyriacou

Christopher Kyriacou first appeared on the live tournament scene in 2009, cashing in the GUKPT Main Event at Grosvenor G Casino for £2,300 (18th place). Two years later, he finished 7th in another GUKPT Main Event at The Victoria Poker Room, earning £12,500.

Kyriacou's most notable victory came in October 2017 at the 888Live London Festival. The £220 Opening Event attracted 771 entries (521 unique plus 250 rebuys), creating a £142,758 prize pool that smashed the £120,000 guarantee. Kyriacou entered the final table with 2,285,000 chips and, after several key double-ups, reached a three-handed deal. He secured the trophy and £20,000, while Ka Him Li took £17,900 and Terry Simpson £17,675.

In the 2025 World Series of Poker, Kyriacou cashed in two events:

• Event #87: $5,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold'em – 100th place ($7,087)
• Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha – 262nd place ($1,980)

These results contributed to his live earnings total of $162,914, with a best cash of $26,523.

According to WSOP.com records, Kyriacou has four online cashes, one final table, and total online earnings of $33,102. He is primarily known for his live achievements but maintains a presence on major platforms like PokerStars. His aggressive style and adaptability in bounty tournaments have been noted by peers.

While specific hand histories are limited, Kyriacou’s results suggest a solid all-around game. In the 888Live event, he demonstrated composure under pressure, doubling up with ace-king and winning key coinflips. His ability to navigate final-table ICM and negotiate deals indicates strong strategic awareness.
