It was another spectacular day at the Cash Game Festival London at Aspers Casino Westfield Stratford City with players enjoying themselves on and away from the poker tables.

The day began for Unibet Poker players with a hybrid cash game tournament at 3 p.m. BST. Cash Game Festival Commentator Henry Kilbane was invited to play and wound up booking a healthy profit of £323, the most of any of the players.

A couple of hours later, the first feature table of the day began with stakes at £2/£2 no-limit hold'em. Joseph Field was the biggest winner of the early session after booking a profit of £739 or 369.5 big blinds.

While the first feature table was running, Unibet Poker players and others headed off to a player's dinner on the house. Meanwhile, the poker room was filling up and eventually 19 tables were running simultaneous across a variety of poker variants.

The stakes moved up to £5/£5 pot-limit Omaha for the late stream. For the second time this festival, Chris Yong was the biggest winner after booking a profit of £1,800 or 360 big blinds.

While both Field and Yong had great sessions, neither player are the man to beat going into the final day of the festival for the coveted Cash Game Festival trophy awarded to the player that won the most big blinds out of any of the 10 main feature tables. The man everyone has a bullseye on is none other than Cash Game Festival Co-Founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk after he won £1,500 at a £2/£2 pot-limit Omaha table on Day 1.

Tomorrow players with the hospitality package will be invited for a guided tour with a twist before the final day of poker action begins.

Stay tuned at PokerNews for the final day of the Cash Game Festival London.

Chris Yong was the big winner on the late Day 2 £5/£5 no-limit hold'em feature table. He proved he could also be a big winner in Omaha as just now he booked a profit of £1,800 (360 big blinds) on the Day 4 £5/£5 pot-limit Omaha feature table.

Despite Yong's two huge feature table wins, he is still not the man to beat for a chance for the trophy. On Day 1, Cash Game Festival Co-Founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk won £1,500 on a £2/£2 pot-limit Omaha table for 750 big blinds in profit.

Joseph Field Wins Big

Next up is a £5/£5 pot-limit Omaha that is bound to be action-packed. We will have short bios of the players after it begins. Cash Game Festival's Henry Kilbane and George Sandford will be manning the booth.

Yesterday was easily the biggest day of the festival thus far with poker room booming with activity with 24 tables running for hours. The games were all low to mid stakes and included no-limit hold'em, and Sviten Special.

The biggest games yesterday were played in £5/£10 no-limit hold'em including the late feature table which attracted many big cash game players including Terry Jordon, Jason Wong, Chris Yong and Jose Manuel Planells Castillo. However, it was Eddie Anderson, who bought into the game for the most, that booked the most profit at the table.
