Mystery Player Finish the Ride
In addition to the Coolbet Easter Series, it was possible to take part in the special The Festival Easter Satellites with a purchase of 20 euros during the Easter campaign.

- Myster Player: " I participated in a total of 6 tournaments and achieved the best result on April 9 when I reached the final table and finished there in 6th place. At the same time, the stability was quite good except for the first and last times. 6th, 10th, 11 and 14th place - Not bad considering how little I've been exposed to online poker.
- The online game is still significantly faster than live and situations change very quickly. One moment you seem to have a very large and playable stack and the next … boom.. you are on push-fold mode with less than 10BB. Most of the time I fell out with a flip (I remember the situation from the 05.04 tournament where I was all-in with 3 3 against K 9 and the opponent got three "loves" on the flop, and I was drawing dead unless I hit runner-runners which I dindn´t.
- I can't say a single bad word about my game. Surely, if some professional players need to analyze my game, they would definitely find mistakes, but in the big picture, I can be satisfied. Some very nice bluffs also went through, which I am very happy about. It's a pity I didn't win the package, but I'll try a few more times.
Facts about Mystery Player:
- Online nickname: H0modeus / Coolbet
- Real name: Roman
- Gender: Male
- Age: Age is still a number so around 30
- Location: Tallinn
- Future plans: Start playing actively in online
The Festival Series team thanks Roman, who took the plunge and dived into online poker as a Mystery Player. For those who like mysteries, as a reminder that Festival Malta's schedule includes the Mystery Bounty tournament, which has been gaining more and more popularity in recent years. We listened to our players and decided to add the Mystery Bounty tournament to the tournament schedule, regardless of the fact that Franke won't win it anyway. However, what Franke will definitely win is the Unibet online satellite tournament starting at 20:00 CET.
