Monday's session of Franke's Flip Flops is in the books. After the freeroll flips for those with the hospitality package for tomorrow's €125 Roulette Tournament, the floorman Adam Chalany was masterful behind the microphone announcing the winners and updating the leaderboard. He also encouraged on the microphone for Franke to join the action. Franke was busy battling it out in the €525 Mixed Main Event HORSES which was up to 18 entries on Day 1b and perhaps things would have ended differently.
Multiple players won two flips in Sturla Hiller and three flips for Joseph Jackson. Jackson actually won his first flip which was a freeroll thanks to winning a package that included the hospitality package.
Shortly after, Estonia's Keito Kaljlaid found the flipping action and instantly got involved. He lost his first flip, but then immediately snagged the lead winning three flips in a row. He then lost his next one but had four tickets with more than €100 in tournament buy-ins each in front of him after winning his next flip.
Meanwhile, The Festival's Karev Tralla got into the action for a few flips and wound up side-betting Coolbet's Svein Olav Eidsaeter. The amount started at more than the €20 buy-in for the rake-free flip and went up from there. Tralla won two of those flips to tie Jackson and Hiller in second place on the leaderboard before Eidsaeter won a bit back on a bigger bet.
Tralla was still ahead in his flipping endeavor but more players came and Tralla graciously gave up his seat to Daniel Pilgrim.
Meanwhile, by the time the 20th and final flip was dealt, Kaljulaid already won six of them. This puts him three ahead of Jackson with Hiller, and Tralla in the lead for the Franke's Flip Flops leaderboard. No lead is safe as any player can run hot. We will update more on Franke's Flip Flops tomorrow when the flipping fun returns from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m.
