The first of two feature tables has just kicked off with stakes of €1/€3 no-limit hold'em. The game will likely play a bit bigger with a Mississippi straddle in effect. This isn't an ordinary straddle as players on the button can straddle for up to €15.

In addition, the entire feature table agreed that the dealer will turn over one card from the hand of the winning player.

Headlining the feature table is Unibet Poker Ambassador Rauno "Estonian Jesus" Tahvonen in Seat 1. Tahvonen is known for having fun and giving off good vibes both on and away from the table. Unibet's Patric Huemmerich is also at the table in Seat 6.

Two players from 32Red Poker are also at the table with Marc Cadic in Seat 2 and Mick Smith in Seat 5.

In addition, PokerAkademia is in the house with tons of players and will be streaming the Cash Game Festival feature table for the first time in Hungarian on their Twitch channel. With this in mind, they have two players at the feature table including Jozsef Nagy in Seat 3 and Levente Gavaller in Seat 8.

Rounding off the table is Cash Game Festival qualifier Kiril Kochov in Seat 4 and two-time Cash Game Festival trophy winner Kevin Malone in Seat 7.

The Cash Game Festival Bratislava trophy will be awarded to the player that wins the most big blinds out of any of the 10 feature tables during the festival. The player that walks away with the trophy will also be awarded a Cash Game Festival package valued at €1,500 to the next Cash Game Festival at Olympic Park Casino in Tallinn on Nov. 21-25.

Peter La Terra, who has attended most of the Cash Game Festivals in its 23-event history, was in the driver's seat for the trophy after Day 1 after shipping €1,506 (753 big blinds) at the €2/€2 PLO feature table.

However, his lead didn't last long. Yesterday, David Lappin booked a huge profit of €4,162 (832.8 big blinds) to take the lead.

Whether or not Lappin can coast to the title remains to be seen as feature table players are hungry to grab the trophy for themselves.

Here is a look at the big winners at first four feature tables of the festival:

Welcome to Day 3 of the Cash Game Festival Bratislava at Banco Casino.

For some, it was hard to distinguish when Day 2 ended and Day 3 began with a handful of tables running through the night including a €2/€2 Sviten Special table.

Players with the hospitality package began the day with a virtual reality experience with the Cash Game Festival crew hiring out the venue for four hours.

The first of two televised feature tables kicks off at 7 p.m. CEST with stakes at €1/€3 no-limit hold'em. Three hours later at 10 p.m. CEST, the stakes kick up to €5/€10 no-limit hold'em.

The feature tables can be viewed with hole cards exposed on a 20-minute delay at the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel and within our PokerNews coverage. Cash Game Festival's Henry Kilbane and Petyo Andonov will once again provide expert commentary with many guest cohosts popping in and out of the booth throughout the evening.

Our coverage will begin before the first feature table begins. Stay tuned to PokerNews as we bring you the highlights of Day 3 of the Cash Game Festival Bratislava.
