There May Be No Escape For Some Players at the Cash Game Festival Tallinn Fall Edition
Welcome to PokerNews' live coverage of the final day of the 2017 Cash Game Festival Tallinn Fall Edition at Olympic Park Casino.
Yesterday was easily the biggest day of the festival thus far with poker room booming with activity with at least a dozen tables running for hours. The games were across a variety of stakes and games included no-limit hold'em, pot-limit Omaha and Sviten Special.
Yesterday's big feature table was €5/€10 no-limit hold'em. Cash Game Festival London trophy winner and Nordicbet player Jon Kyte proved he wasn't a one-hit wonder and was the biggest winner at that table after booking a profit of €2,350 or 235 big blinds.
Kyte will have a chance to face-off against Cash Game Festival Dublin trophy winner Kevin Malone, Unibet's Espen Uhlen Jørstad, Elizabeth Cape and many others in today's early €5/€5 pot-limit no-limit feature table at 6 p.m. local time.
The later feature table at 9 p.m. should also provide fireworks as the game changes to €5/€5 pot-limit Omaha. Malone will also play at this table giving him two chances to win back to back Cash Game Festival trophies.
All the feature table players will be chasing Estonia's Heiti Riisberg for this festival's feature table trophy. He holds a huge lead that is on the competition after winning €3,364 or 1,682 big blinds on a wild and crazy €2/€2 no-limit hold'em table on Day 1 that featured many businessmen including Cash Game Festival's Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk and Nick Voght.
You will be able to check out the feature tables on the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel and within our PokerNews coverage by clicking on the Live Stream tab once the action kicks off.
Many players with the hospitality package were treated to a guided tour. In a way, the tour was guided by the players as they were escorted to an escape room where they had to figure out the exit. Previous activities included welcome drinks, painting of nude models, a world-class dinner and last night's VIP party at one of Tallinn's most notorious party destinations Vabank Night Club.
Coverage will kick off at around 5:00 p.m. local time and continue throughout the day and evening. Stay tuned at PokerNews as we report the latest and greatest news from the 2017 Cash Game Festival Tallinn.
