Recap Day 2 – “A Spa therapy” Tallinn, November 2016

Hello everyone, Day 1 is over and was so cool ! Please enjoy the highlights of this fabulous first day of action and fun here in Tallinn!

After having a good night of rest, we were back at the Olympic Park Casino for a meeting at 11 am with the VIP players, the partners and all of our qualifiers, getting ready to take a bus with everyone to go to the Viimsi SPA for an afternoon of total relaxation ! Oh boy, the place is totally amazing ! A huge swimming pool with relaxing bubble, a warm jacuzzi, an extra hot small swimming pool, an ice bath (we’ll come back to it later in the article) and plenty of choices of different kind of “room” with: Sauna, Hammam, Salt & Honey.. Yes please! As we arrive, we find, to welcome us, fresh fruits and nice drinks and cocktails to enjoy!

Three times during this SPA afternoon we had “a traditional SPA ritual”: a very energetic guy was putting the temperature up to 95 degree Celsius (maybe more) and he made us shout loudly to express our tenses and then to relax into this very hot atmosphere perfumed with crystal mints. This is how healing is to experience a Cash Game Festival with us.  At the end of the session, to dry ourselves, we’ve been slapping our skin with a bundle of birch twigs and then we all jumped into the ice cold water bath (I finally did it after at least 7 attempts). A curative experience, good for the blood pressure. I am sure that all of our guests and qualifiers from our different partners: NordicBet, OlyBet, Slots Millions as well as our Facebook Winner had an amazing time as we did.
After this fabulous afternoon of enjoyment, we were all back to the Casino to start the first TV table of this Day 2, a crazy 2€/2€ with some interesting characters at the table: Marko, serbian economist, Pavel, a sales man from Czech Republic, Wojciech and Mateusz, two polish players, our Cash Game Festival Estonian regular Maret Komarova, Christian Oberg from Sweden and Erki Andressoo, a local Estionnian player.  The action was live on our Twitch channel (and replays are all available there) with the unbeatable commentary of Brandon Allen!
Thirtheen tables were running during the whole evening: high energy in the room of the lovely Olympic Park Casino, some players into a deep concentration and some : laughing, joy to the heart, what an stunning night!
If there is a doctor in the room, call him : the second stream of the day was not good for your blood pressure: a very exciting 5€/10€ with 5€ ante 6 max table was live on Twitch at 9 PM (Estionian time) ! A pleasure to welcome our dear Peter La Terra from Sweden at this table, the Estionians players Igor Pihela Jr. and Rauno, “Pinky” from U.K, Alejandro from Mexico and Roni Blomberg from Finland. We had the chance to have again the professional player Andrew “Picasso 2” Hedley on the commentary with Brandon Allen and trust me, nothing escape the attention of the multitabling online Cash Game regular! It’s always perfect to sit back, listen and learn new things in Poker while in the same time having a lot of fun with theses guys on the Live Chat ! That why I love watching the Cash Game Festival stream so much !
I am taking now my morning coffee in the lounge of the Olympic Park Casino, 4 tables are still running close to me (do theses guys think at one point to get some sleep?) and today start the third day of the Cash Game Festival Tallinn! Guess what? This is the time to start a new competition, this time in the art of Pool, meeting at 2PM and tonight, time for an amazing dinner !
A huge thanks at all our partners: NordicBet, OlyBet, 888poker, SlotsMillion and all the awesome staff of the Olympic Casino ! Make sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and our Instagram !
