Now that some of the football is winding down, players are beginning to pack into Aspers Casino Westfield Stratford City in bigger numbers. Most of the tables are lower stakes £1/£1 and £1/£2 no-limit hold'em and pot-limit Omaha, however, there is also a higher action £5/£5 dealer's choice pot-limit Omaha game going for some of the bigger stakes players.
Tonight organizers expect to see a handful of bigger games running, maybe as high as the £25/£50 hold'em game running last night.
Every three hours during the Cash Game Festival London, the poker room at Aspers Casino Westfield Stratford City has been hosting a high-hand jackpot.
With one hour left, the hand to now beat is 
for the chance at a £200 prize. Hands don't have to go to showdown to qualify.
Action is continuing to steadily grow as Aspers Casino Westfield Stratford City now has 16 tables running.
This number is likely to continue to grow over the next hour at a minimum with a line forming for those looking to get on waiting lists and in on the action.
A couple of new tables just opened right now including a six-plus hold'em table. This game made popular by Phil Ivey and Tom Dwan in Macau and is now available online only on iPoker takes a fun twist on hold'em.
First of all, all 2's through 6's are removed from the deck. Secondly, the hand ranks are differently with three-of-a-kind stronger than a straight and a flush stronger than a full-house.
We are at 20 tables for the first time today. This doesn't include the feature table which is scheduled to kickoff in about 20 minutes.
The feature table will be a high-stakes no-limit hold'em affair with stakes set for £25/£50. We'll update with who winds up playing shortly after the action begins.
The featured game just kicked off with £25/£50 no limit hold'em. Among the players playing for big bucks is Spain's Javier Perez Estevez. During the final hand of last night's feature table, Estevez won a huge pot of over £20,000 when his pocket-aces held against pocket-kings and pocket-queens of his two opponents.
Joining Estevez is Greek semi-pro poker player Nic Markou who has been playing poker for 20 years dating back to his time playing while studying in his university.
Romania's Vasile Cosmin Stancu learned poker back in 2006 and became a pro in 2009. He isn't afraid of the big action having won six-digits pots in pot-limit Omaha in the past.
29-year old Sergio Marti from Spain describes himself as mostly an online poker player. Despite never being on a featured table in the past, he shared that he wasn't nervous.
Jeremy Pantin shared his favorite games are pot-limit Omaha and mixed-games, while Matthew Moss' one and only goal is to "win money!"
David Pedro Leja shared that he plays mid-stakes online and high-stakes during live play. Leja has been on a few action tables during the poker festival.
