The Hendon Mob Championship winner Haik Tougu has taken a narrow lead in the Player of the Series race, with 81 points, 77 of which he banked with his win. However, the Estonian is only 2 points ahead of Moreno Rutten from Netherlands, who has cashed in four events so far at Kings Casino, Rozvadov.
Four of the players in the current top ten are those who made the final table of The Hendon Mob Championship with Omaha Masters winner Oleksandr Sadovyi sneaking into the top ten.
Maureen Bloechlinger currently sits in 5th place with 57 points, having made final tables in both the Friday and Saturday Texas Madness events. She’s unlikely to challenge for the €1,600 Malta package, as she has already returned home to Switzerland. But its only an eight hour drive, so we won’t rule out the possibility that she returns.

With six events of The Festival in Rozvadov now completed, here’s an early peek at the Player of the Series leaderboard.
Horst Boeschen has won his SECOND title at The Festival Series 2025 here at King’s Resort in Rozvadov!
He has added the €125 Holdem 6+ Bounty (Short deck) (Bounty €25) title to his victory in the €150 PLO Championship from the first day of the festival! He topped a field of 109 entrants, 59 of which were unique. Judging by the stack of bounty cards Boeschen had in front of him, it looks like he secured a decent portion of the bounties that were put into play, on top of the €2,189 first-place prize! Below is the payout table, not including bounties earned.
Franke’s Flips is set to take place at the tables near the tournament registration area! For just €25, you can flip your way to glory in a series of “stand and goes” in a quest to win a pair of Franke’s fabled flip flops and tournament credits! Come join in the fun!
Oh, and there’s a chance to win a Malta package worth €1,600!
The first of two Cash Game Challenges is set to commence at 8 p.m. this evening.
Today will start with “The Great Game” of PLO, with the minimum buy-in set at €200. The challenge will be held on the featured table, which will be streamed on King’s Casino’s YouTube channel.
The challenge is decided on a leaderboard basis, meaning whoever finishes up the most amount of money during the challenges will win a €1,600 package to the next installment of The Festival Series in Malta!
Feel free to tune in and check it out when the action kicks off shortly.
Seven players have become four at a decent pace here in Rozvadov. Here is a look at the current payouts, all of which exclude bounties earned throughout play today.
Stefano Bertoldi was all in for 6,000 in the big blind with the blinds at 3,000/6,000.
Torsten Rink called from under the gun, as did the €150 PLO Championship winner, Horst Boeschen.
The J K J 6 8 runout was checked down by the two non-all-in players. Boeschen believed that Bertoldi had the winner as he tabled 10 7 . Bertoldi had a slightly better holding with 10 9 but it was Rink’s Q 10 for queen-high, which was good enough to secure the pot and Bertoldi’s bounty.
Today, players will have the opportunity to qualify for Day 2 of the ever-popular Mystery Bounty format. The €250 NLH Mystery Bounty – Day 1B (€100 Bounty) starts today at 6 p.m.
