Jon Kyte won the first Cash Game Festival trophy when the feature table contest began in September at Aspers Casino in London.

Since then, the Norwegian has won a handful of tournament trophies, but becoming the first player to win his or her second Cash Game Festival trophy is something he is hungry for.

He will have a chance today as he is in Seat 8 at the early €2/€2 pot-limit Omaha feature table. He will need to best the 754 big blinds won yesterday by Rikard Relander or €1,508 to have a chance.

Kyte's work is cut out for him as he has a tough lineup to win money from. You can see how he and others do by clicking on the Live Stream tab in our coverage or at the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel.

Here is a look at the rest of players also competing for money and the trophy at the early feature table.

Ronni Borg, in Seat 1, is a Cash Game Festival veteran and is attending the festival this time around thanks to winning a full package at Unibet Poker.

Peter La Terra, in Seat 2, needs no introduction as he has been to just about every Cash Game Festival. La Terra is a fierce competitor at any game, especially at Sviten Special which he also plays locally in his home country of Sweden.

Ryan "Metalface" Davey, in Seat 3, was already the biggest winner once at the feature table. However, then the game was hold'em which he most often plays. He would be among of a handful of players to book the most profit at multiple feature tables during the same festival if he outperforms his table.

Also appearing at his second feature table this festival is 32Red qualifier Edgars Armans, in Seat 4. This is his third straight festival and shared he has also already won a package in an online satellite for the next Cash Game Festival at Platinum Casino in Sunny Beach, Bulgaria on Aug. 8-12.

Ireland's Karen Muir, in Seat 5, is attending her second straight Cash Game Festival. Muir enjoys the action regardless of the stakes and shouldn't be a player overlooked at the table.

Muir's friend and Cash Game Festival Dublin winner Kevin Malone, in Seat 6, has attended every Cash Game Festival since winning the trophy in his hometown poker room.

Betsafe Product Coordinator Taivo Egel rounds off the action in Seat 7. This is his second feature table after he previously appeared the last time the Cash Game Festival visited Tallinn in November.
