The Festival in Bratislava 2023
It is 3,5 weeks until The Festival in Bratislava at Banco Casino. This will be the third edition of this stop. First time I went to Bratislava was for this event in 2021, and since then Bratislava has become one of my favourite citys in Europe to play poker! This will be my third trip to Bratislava for The Festival series, but this year I have already been to Bratislava for Mixed Games Series and North Masters (check schedule for MGS and NM 2024 here) and Coolbet Open Bratislava 2 months ago!
What I love about this city? Bratislava is easy to travel to from most of Europe, the city is beautiful and I love the old town. I also love all the restaurants and Slovakian wine! The hospitality at both Casinos (Banco Casino and Cards Casino) is great! As a pokerplayer I really appreciate to have easy access to buffet in short breaks, water, coffe, soda water and so on. Yes, the beer and beautiful Slovakian wine is also not expensive, but to have all the other facilities when you play, is a must and much appreciated!
The Festival Series is one of my favourite series! I love the wide selection of different events within my buy in range. Main Event is 550€ and therefore all the sideevents is from 35€ satellites to 125€-250€. This are some of my highlights:
- Mixed Games Main Event 2-Day – HORSES 550€ 26-28.november
