Welcome to Day 3 of the 2018 Cash Game Festival Bulgaria at Platinum Casino, located steps away from the Black Sea in the aptly named Sunny Beach.

The first two days of the festival provided tons of excitement both on and away from the tables. There were 14 tables of players battling it out and having fun all night long with many players still playing after the sun came up.

A packed house is expected again on Day 3. Players have no reason to be worried about if they will get a seat at a table as the casino promised to replace gaming tables with poker tables as needed.

As will be the case throughout the festival, Cash Game Festival's Henry Kilbane and PokerNews' Jason Glatzer will be hosting the commentary of two televised feature tables at 7 p.m. EEST and 10 p.m. EEST at the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel and embedded in our coverage as well.

Unibet Poker player and Cash Game Festival regular Kalle Fagerstrom will be in the line-up for the early €1/€3 no-limit hold'em feature table.

The stakes then move up and the game changes to €5/€5 pot-limit Omaha at the later feature table. Two-time Cash Game Festival trophy winner and 32Red Poker qualifier Jon Kyte will be attempting to set a record for the most Cash Game Festival trophies won in what promises to be an exciting table.

Meanwhile, Youness Barakat already set a Cash Game Festival record by winning three of the first four feature tables. He will be back in action against Kyte and others in hopes of winning a fourth table.

The feature tables aren't the only action as players can enjoy any game they think of. Last night's action featured no-limit hold'em, pot-limit Omaha, and a Sviten Special table that didn't close until after 7 a.m.

Players with the hospitality package are also in for a treat tonight as the Cash Game Festival crew is hosting a VIP dinner in Nesebar at 10 p.m.
