Federico Drassich Crushes Two Feature Tables in One Day to Make Cash Game Festival History in Slovenia
Day 4 of the Cash Game Festival Slovenia at Perla Casino featured one player making history while at the same time many other players were rocking at the VIP party in Pulse Arena.
Federico Drassich managed to be the big winner both on the early €1/€2 no-limit hold'em televised feature table, but also the big winner on the later €2/€5 no-limit hold'em televised feature table. He set one record for becoming the first player to win the most on two feature tables in one day, another record for being the biggest winner on three feature tables in a single Cash Game Festival, and a third record for being the biggest winner three times across all Cash Game Festivals.
The day began with many players still playing from the night before. Some players including Jack Fenton and Janar Kokk never went to sleep and in the afternoon decided to take a break from poker by driving with their friends Elora Kask, Stefan Bagiensky and Matthew Manetta to Venice to check out the canals.
Many other players got a normal night sleep and were back in the poker room all day long grinding cash games. At 10:30 p.m., more than two dozens players went to the Pulse Arena for the VIP party.
Tomorrow will be the last day thus far in the Cash Game Festival Slovenia. Early in the day, the Cash Game Festival organizers arranged for a trip to the scenic caves the area is well known for.
As will be the case every day during the festival, live streaming for tomorrow is scheduled at lower stakes at 5:40 p.m. CET and at higher stakes at 8:40 p.m. CET on a 20-minute delay. Brandon Allen will provide the lead commentary with guests popping in and out throughout the two broadcasts. One of those guests is rumored to be Slovenian poker streamer "RustRock", who participated in the Online Cash Game Festival late last year.
Stay tuned at PokerNews for the next three days as we report some of the hottest action at the Cash Game Festival Slovenia.
Federico Drassich Makes History!
The stream just ended and Federico Drassich has made Cash Game Festival history by being the big winner for the third time on feature tables this festival after booking a profit of over €500. Additionally, this is the second time he has done it in one day, which is also a new record.
It's Going To Be Close
We are keeping a close eye on the feature table with Italy's Federico Drassich potentially creating Cash Game Festival history with being the big winner on a feature table. He had a healthy lead on the rest of the table, but now he is neck in neck with fellow Italian Alessandro Natale.
We will announced if history was made in about 40 minutes.
RustRock to Join the Stream Tomorrow
RustRock participated as a streamer for the first-ever online Cash Game Festival which took place late last year. He just announced in the chat box on the Twitch stream that he will be heading to Perla Casino tomorrow to join Brandon Allen in the commentary booth and also enjoy some poker action.
Party Time!
Dozens of players are now downing champagne and enjoying good company at the Pulse Arena.
Those at the party on time include Vikoria Lundberg, Elora Kask, Janar Kokk, Peter La Terra and Maxime Roseau.
Federico Drassich Could Make Cash Game Festival History!
Federico Drassich is going for a Cash Game Festival feature table trifecta as the biggest winner on the table. He just won a nice pot against Dvevad when the duo started going at it on a 
flop. Both players had two pair, however, Drassich's two pair was better with 
against his opponent's 
.
By the time the 
completed the board on the turn and river, the two players were all-in. Drassich collected a nice pot of €893 which catapulted him as the current biggest winner on the table with over €900 in profit.
If Drassich is able to hold on as the biggest winner on the table, he will make Cash Game Festival history as the only person to not only accomplish this three-times, but to do so three times in the same festival. Tune into the stream here on PokerNews, on the Cash Game Festival website or on the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel to see first hand whether festival history will be made by Drassich.
Absolutely Crazy Hand on the Stream
Ex-footballer Rinaldo Frezza just shipped a big pot on the €2/€5 feature table in a crazy hand.
The action began when Finland's Aapeli Äikäs with pocket aces opened for €15. Alessandro Natale, holding 
three-bet to €45 before a player we only know as Dvevad four-bet with pocket queens to €200.
Frezza then five-bet all-in for €337 all-in with 
. Äikäs then goes over the top for a six-bet to €510. Natale quickly folded and Dvevad who had everyone covered called.
The flop came 
to give Frezza an unlikely lead in the hand. He shipped a pot of over €1,000 after the 
completed the board on the turn and the river. Äikäs didn't lose everything as he was able to collect a few hundred in the side pot.
It's Almost Party Time!
The poker room is full of enthusiasm from those sitting at the poker tables and grinding. However, there are some others off of the tables buzzing with excitement about the VIP party about to begin in one hour at the Pulse Arena located in the casino.
Per Lindholm Ahead at Dinner
Per Lindholm was on the way out of the poker room when he shared he is back in profit again. Earlier in the trip he was up a bit, only to give it all back yesterday. He is leaving tomorrow morning, and it looks pretty good he will do so with a few extra bucks in his pocket.
