Feature Table Bios
The €1/€2 no-limit hold'em feature table just kicked off, however, the stream is on a slight delay and should be live in a few minutes.
Slovakia's Dusan Hajek, sitting in sitting in seat 1, has been playing poker for 7 years, mostly online. The 30-year old has never played on a televised table before and he shared his strategy for the the final table "is not to be nervous."
In seat 2 is local Bulgarian Toni Statev, who shared he plays poker for fun. The 20-year old shared that he will be "hunting" at the final table. When not playing poker or enjoying other hobbies, he is busy studying law.
Sweden's Daniel Nisman in seat 3 is a 32-year old bartender. He began playing poker online, however, currently only plays at the casino and home games. He has played in some big action in the past including being involved in a single pot worth 10,000 Swedish Krona.
Bulgaria's Martin Tonchev in seat 4 is not a stranger to being on a televised table as he shared he was previously streamed in action for the World Poker Tour Austria Warm-Up in March 2016 where he won €6,420.
Estonia's Maret Komarova in seat 5 is a SlotsMillions.com sponsored player. The former tennis coach shared that she is "very confident," which we can understand since she has been attended many Cash Game Festivals in the past and appeared on the feature table. In addition to excelling in both tennis and poker, Komarova also took second place in the table tennis tournament that took place at the Cash Game Festival in London in March.
Over in seat 6 is Bulgari's Boris Antonov. Although he has never played on a television table before, he shared that he is not nervous. This is probably due to having more than 10 years experience playing ring games.
Merel Merdjanow is also from Bulgaria and shared that he is "really excited to play on his first television table. The 22-year old's biggest pot was for €3,500 at €2/€5 no-limit hold'em.
Fellow countrymate Kalle Fagerstrom in seat 8 is a Cash Game Festival veteran having attended just about every one including the last one in Malta. He is a poker manager during the day, but is here today as a Guts.com sponsored poker player. He shared his stratategy is to "kiss the ass of noobs, not to be nervous, and drink beer." Ok, that last bit might not be strategy, but he did add that he was "looking forward" to being on the feature table.
