Star-Studded Feature Table Begins
The late €5/€10 no-limit hold'em feature table has just kicked off. Poker fans should be in for a treat as it is one of the stronger tables the Cash Game Festival has seen in terms of overall cash game talent. You can follow the action on the Cash Game Festival Twitch channel or by clicking on the Live Stream tab in our coverage.
Estonia's Kaido Mikk, in Seat 1, joked that his biggest achievement in poker was appearing on this televised feature table. It remains to be seen whether he can notch a huge win and make his prophecy true.
Lithuania's Pavel Timoshenko, in Seat 2, has appeared on a few feature tables in the past and €5/€10 is a game within his comfort zone. Timoshenko has proved to be a fierce competitor in the past with a sharp eye on his opponent's tendencies.
Estonian businessman Erti Laidvee, in Seat 3, has been playing poker for 15 years. While we don't know much about Laidvee, he did claim to once win a €30,000 in single a pot-limit Omaha hand.
United Kingdom's Ryan Mullarkey, in Seat 4, was also on last night's €5/€10 no-limit hold'em feature table. The young gun has proven at many Cash Game Festivals that he can play with the best of them. He was one of the players on the wild €5/€5 pot-limit Omaha table running until the sun came up that had over €100,000 on the table between all of the players.
Nordicbet player Jon Kyte from Norway, in Seat 5, needs little introduction to Cash Game Festival fans as he won the Cash Game Festival London feature table trophy for dominating a ￡2/￡5 no-limit hold'em game. He will try to prove again that he is one of Norway's top poker players especially in cash games.
Estonia's Erki Andressoo, in Seat 6, has been playing poker for a decade. He shared that his biggest poker achievement was, "Talking this casino's best player Kaido Mikk out of a big pot on the river."
Whether or not that was a compliment at Mikk or a needle, we will likely see some action between the duo.
United Kingdom's Jonathan Bowers, in Seat 7, is fresh off his biggest tournament cash in his career when he took second place in a big event in London for ￡36,115.
Last, but certainly not least, is the charismatic Espen Uhlen J?rstad in Seat 8. It appears that the Cash Game Festival is following J?rstad around instead of the other way around. The Norwegian attended the festival in Malta in June where he was living at the time. He now lives in Tallinn and has been able to make several feature table appearances during this festival as well.
As a special treat, Bowers' girlfriend Elizabeth Cape, who also appeared on a pair of feature tables will join Cash Game Festival Commentator Andrew "Picasso" Hedley and betsafe Ambassador Monika "HeyMonia" Zukowicz in the commentator's booth. However, before that happens, Betsafe's Tanel "HDTanel" Lepp, who is a huge YouTube gaming streamer and appeared on the last feature table, will partner up with Hedley.
