Siiri Saar Leads Team Eve to Victory on Day 4 of the Cash Game Festival Tallinn
Siiri Saar was easily the star of the show on the felt at the Cash Game Festival Tallinn at Olympic Park Casino.
The late televised feature table was evenly split between men and women to lead festival organizers to dub the competition the Adam Vs. Eve feature table.
The stakes weren't high at €2/€2 no-limit hold'em but there was a lot of pride on the line. This didn't mean the women didn't play hard against the women and the men didn't play hard against the men as well. The friendly competition of whether the men would win more than the women or vice versa provided a fun and competitive poker game.
At the end of the day, the women as a whole outperformed the mean with Saar booking a profit of €322 or 161 big blinds. Lithuania's Julija Borisionok also helped Team Eve to victory by winning the second most profit at the table of €213.
Meanwhile, three out of the four losing players at the table were men. One of the few bright spots for Team Adam was Latvia's Aigars Dambrans who booked a profit of €133.
Earlier this festival, Dabrans, who has been to many Cash Game Festivals in the past, won a free Cash Game Festival Bulgaria package valued at €1,500 at Platinum Casino in Sunny Beach on Aug. 8-14. He won the package thanks to having a ticket selected in a random drawing among the players at the festival.
Meanwhile, the stakes were higher at the earlier feature table with players battling it out at €2/€5 no-limit hold'em. Unibet Poker Ambassador Rauno "Estonian Jesus" Tahvonen, who is well-known for playing tournaments, proved he could also play cash games won €511 or 102.2 big blinds.
Despite their table leading performances, neither Tahvonen nor Saar came close to being in contention for the Cash Game Festival trophy awarded to the player that wins the most big blinds on any of the ten tables during the festival.
Currently, this honor belongs to Cash Game Festival veteran Peter La Terra after he booked a profit of €1,996 or 998 big blinds at a €2/€2 no-limit hold'em table on Day 3.
In addition to the trophy, the winner of the competition will also be awarded a full Cash Game Festival Bulgaria package compliments of 32Red Poker. La Terra already won a package to this festival thanks to a high hand promotion at the last one at Banco Casino in Bratislava is in position to win a free package to back-to-back festivals.
However, he still has two more feature tables to sweat and typically there are some players on the final table willing to play looser than they might normally would in order to secure the coveted trophy for themselves.
In addition to the hot poker action, when the clock turned midnight, many players headed to one of Tallinn's hottest nightclubs VaBank for a night of free drinks and dancing.
The Cash Game Festival Tallinn wraps up tomorrow with an epic Day 5 planned including a city tour with a twist around the Estonian capital. Stay tuned at PokerNews as we bring you all the highlights on the final day.
