The Summer-edition 2018 Cash Game Festival London at Aspers Casino keeps growing bigger and bigger with Day 3 building off the huge success from its first two days with nonstop ring game action running all day long. The action peaked at 24 tables with many of them expected to run through the night and into the morning.

In addition to the massive amount of action in the poker room, the feature tables were even more special than normal with three tables taking place instead of the usual two.

The first feature table was dubbed a £1/£1 no-limit hold'em Aspers Poker Special with the first six players at the table winning a stake to sit down after qualifying through a tournament earlier in the week. PokerNews Editor Jason Glatzer and Cash Game Festival's Henry Kilbane announced the action.

The other Cash Game Festival commentator, George Sandford, left the booth to join in on the fun and was able to book a small profit. However, it was James Simms, who entered the game late after one of the players lost his stack and decided not to reload, who was the biggest winner after booking a profit of £185.

The stakes doubled to £2/£2 no-limit hold'em for the second feature table of the day with Kilbane and Sandford commentating. Ian James pulled off the biggest win of that table after securing £512 in profit or 256 big blinds.

Shortly after, the third and final feature table began with stakes at €5/€10 no-limit hold'em commentated by Sandford and Glatzer. As one might expect at these stakes, the table was full of experienced players displaying impressive poker action. Eddie Anderson, who seems to always impress whenever the Cash Game Festival comes to London, managed to nail down the biggest win at the feature table of the day after booking a profit of £3,690 or 369 big blinds.

Despite Anderson's huge win, neither player is in contention for the Cash Game Festival feature table trophy that gets awarded to the player that wins the most big blinds at any of the 10 feature tables during the festival. Right now, Cash Game Festival Co-Founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk is in the lead after winning £1,500 or 750 big blinds on a £1/£2 pot-limit Omaha feature table on Day 1.

While hundreds of players enjoyed amazing poker action throughout the day, many more were involved in a FIFA battle on the big screen just outside the poker room. The first round is in the books and the semi-finals start tomorrow. Cash Game Festival organizers have George Sandford as the early favorite after he crushed the first round with a 4-0 victory.

Stay tuned at PokerNews for the next two days as we report the hottest action during the 2018 Cash Game Festival London.
