The Festival Series founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk gave some announcements to those gathering in the Main Event room before Day 1c got underway with 24 entries.
Some of the early players include Bas de Laat, Mike Hansen, Attila Erdei, and Luka Cakarevic. Meanwhile, Kelly Kellner, who was part of the five-way deal last night in the €250 Seniors 49+ was all decked up and sparkly once again listening to Franke's announcement. He shared afterward that he would hop in shortly into the Main Event as well.
Day 1c will feature a dozen blind levels of 40 minutes each similar to Day 1a and Day 1b. However, tonight will feature the first turbo flight in Day 1d which will move twice as fast with 20-minute blind levels. In all cases, players can re-enter twice if needed during each opening flight and can also late register or re-enter with a short stack during the first two blind levels of Day 2.
The Main Event isn't the only game in town. Mixed game lovers will enjoy the €125 HORSE at 1 p.m., while those interested in more multi-day play will hop into the two-day €250 The Hendon Mob Championship where they can earn a special The Hendon Mob flag.
Other players have their eyes on the €1,100 High Roller, the €250 PLO 4/5/6, and the €125 Thursday Texas Turbo Midnight Madness. Casino enthusiasts are also bound to have a blast competing in the €125 Slots Championship.
Meanwhile, the Cash Game Challenge will be live-streamed again at TheFestivalOG Twitch channel with stakes at €5/€5. Franke shared he planned to unseat the current leader in WSOP bracelet winner Dainius Antanaitis who won 1,068 big blinds in a €2/€2 PLO Cash Game Challenge session on Tuesday.
