Kevin Malone Coming Back to Defend his Lead
For the second time in Cash Game Festival history, the tour is awarding a trophy to the player that wins the most big blinds during any of the 10 feature table sessions.
Currently, local Irish poker player Kevin Malone is in the lead after winning €1,100 or 550 big blinds during a €1/€2 pot-limit Omaha feature table match on Day 2.
Malone will be back for the final televised feature table at 9 p.m. The game has been switched from €1/€2 no-limit hold'em to €1/€2 pot-limit Omaha.
As of right now, Malone is the heavy favorite to win and he will be doing his best to make sure nobody catches up while he is on the table. He shared he might have to alter his play.
"It will be nice to play the final session and have a chance to defend my lead if someone gets close to me," said Malone. If someone is close, I might have to do some extra gambling!"

Welcome to Day 5 of the 2017 Cash Game Festival Dublin
Welcome to the final day of the 2017 Cash Game Festival Dublin at the Village Green Card Club.
The festival is ending literally in a storm as the first hurricane in decades is descending upon the Emerald Isle. However, this hasn't slowed down the poker action with poker action running through the night with reports from players including Karolis that they were playing as late as 1 p.m. from the day before.
The early feature table will kick off at 6 p.m. BST with action at €1/€2 no-limit hold'em with stakes likely remaining the same at 9 p.m. Betsafe Ambassador Monika "HeyMonia" Zukowicz, who has now been at her fourth Cash Game Festival this year will be among the players at the earlier table.

Our live coverage will kick off at approximately 5:30 p.m. Stay tuned at PokerNews as we report the latest and greatest news from the 2017 Cash Game Festival Dublin.
