The first feature table of the day has just begun. Although the limits are set for recreational players to join with the action at €1/€2 no-limit hold'em, there are some very familiar names and great players to watch. Impressively there are players from eight different countries at the table.

Here is a look at the players that have kicked off the action. You can check out the action by clicking on the Live Stream tab in our coverage, by heading to the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel or on the Cash Game Festival Twitch website.

Headlining the action is Betsafe Ambassador Monika Zukowicz from Poland in Seat 4. Yesterday, Zukowicz was in the commentary booth with Brandon Allen for a few hours announcing play and will now have a chance to prove to her fans that she is a skilled player on the poker table. Zukowicz shared with PokerNews that she had a great experience playing at a Cash Game Feature table a few weeks ago when the festival visited Sunborn Casino in Gibraltar.

Canada's Christopher Straub, in Seat 1, might find today's feature table short since he shared his best poker achievement was once playing for 55 straight hours in Las Vegas. He has little to worry about as he can still try to set a new record with games running around the clock for five straight days. Once the feature table is over, all he needs to do is move his chips to one of the side tables running.

United Kingdom's Peter Cox is in Seat 2. We learned he came to the Cash Game Festival Malta after watching Sin Menis Melin in the commentary booth when the festival was at Aspers Casino in London in February. He shared he is not nervous and loves getting pocket aces.

Latvia's Trumulis, in Seat 3, was on yesterday's opening feature table and is once again behind the lights and cameras. He has been to many Cash Game Festivals before including the last two that were held at Olympic Park Casino in Tallinn and is known to have a good time and not be afraid to be involved in huge pots.

Germany's Manuel Zapf, in Seat 5, has been playing poker for over a decade. He said he was not nervous despite this being his first time ever on a televised poker table. While this may be true, we weren't completely sure if we were being bluffed when he told us his favorite hand is queen-five, an obviously difficult hand to play.

Finland's Sami Kontio, in Seat 6, is making his Cash Game Festival debut after winning a package to Malta at Guts.com. He has been playing poker since 2005 and shared his biggest achievement is that he is not broke.

France is also represented at the feature table with Chevalier seated in Seat 7. This is his second ever feature table experience and shared he is a bit nervous. We may see him play a lot of hands as he shared his favorite one is eight-six suited.

Some might feel that the player in Seat 8, Sweden's Hasan Alexander Anter, might be a bigger name on the table than Zukowicz. Although he considers himself a recreational player, he is a former World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner. He also attended the last Cash Game Festival in Gibraltar and was mentioned as a force to be reckoned when he competed last month.
