Get Ready for a Huge Day 2 of the Cash Game Festival Bratislava
Welcome to Day 2 of the Cash Game Festival Bratislava at Banco Casino Bratislava.
Yesterday was a great start to what promises to be a fantastic first visit to the Slovakian capital for the Cash Game Festival. As is always the case, the festival kicked off with welcome drinks before the first of two televised feature tables began.
Unibet Poker ambassador and The Chip Race podcast co-host David Lappin was the star of the show on the streams yesterday after he booked €651 or 325.5 big blinds in €1/€2 no-limit hold'em.
Luca Sebastiani won less big blinds than Lappin, however, more in total profit when he won €1,688 or 317.6 big blinds in the late €2/€5 no-limit hold'em feature table.
The action under the lights and camera were only one reason for the festival's early success. Players were enjoying a variety of games all night long including a huge €5/€5 pot-limit Omaha game that began in the wee hours of the morning and eventually had over €50,000 on the table.
Today's action is expected to be even bigger with many players just coming into town last night or early today. As will be the case throughout the festival, the dynamic British duo of Henry Kilbane and George Sandford will host the two televised feature tables at 6 p.m. CEST and 9 p.m CEST broadcasted on a 20-minute delay at the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel. You can alternatively follow the action by clicking on the Live Stream tab that will be in our PokerNews coverage once the action is live.
Mario Langer, who was involved in big hands all night long on Day 1, will be back for the early feature table with stakes at €2/€5 no-limit hold'em. Cash Game Festival record holder for the most feature tables with the most profit Jon Kyte is confirmed for the later table with stakes at least the same if not higher than the first table.
