A half-million guarantee in one tournament has been an insurmountable goal in Slovakia until now, but Banco Casino took a step forward and created a big The Festival for poker enthusiasts – attractive tournaments and cash games, where the Main Event 500,000€ GTD was not missing. The largest guaranteed Main Event recorded a total of 1,271 entries, which meant a total prize pool of 603,725€!

The last 16 players remain in the tournament, who have the last step to the coveted win. Each of the finalists is guaranteed 4,710€, but they all have their eyes on the first place valued at 126,650€. Watch the live stream with us from 14:30, when the remaining 16 players will fight for the title of champion of TheFestival Main Event at Banco Casino.

 

 

The second playing day of the Main Event started at 12:00, when all 380 advanced from the opening days and the poker community used the possibility of late registration until the end of the second level. The total number of entries to the Main Event stopped at a beautiful number of 1,271, which is a double increase in the number of entries from last year. In one word, great, how poker in Slovakia is progressing by leaps and bounds thanks to Banco Casino!

 

The poker community participating in Day 2 left nothing to chance, and after only 3.5 hours of play, it was decided which players would leave empty-handed and which would take home the cash prize. You can find the overall order of the ITM elimination in the Day 2 Main Event at the end of the article.

 

The main event and its second day of play ended around midnight and all 16 players went to rest before the demanding final day, at the end of which we expect one name to take home 126,650€ and the title of TheFestival champion. Good luck to all finalists!
