The Festival Weekend – Powered by Betsafe – Qualify NOW!
A little less than a week ago, we revealed our newest addition to The Festival Series calendar with our Weekend Edition. The Chesterfield Poker Club is ready to gear up for this cool event, and you can qualify now through the official partner of the event- Betsafe! Live satellites are also available, and will kick off on March 26 already!
Once again, it is an amazing feeling to be able to organise a live poker event in Tallinn. Estonian poker players are very well-mannered at the poker tables and really like to be competitive. As a content writer for The Festival Series, it will have a special touch to it, as Tallinn was my very first event for The Festival, three years ago. Now, with The Festival Weekend approaching (April 23-26), it is an absolute pleasure to explain to you more about the upcoming live- and online satellites for this event.
Poker players have so many choices these days, and when it comes to satellite tournaments it's no different. However, there are still many players out there, who do not tend to make a difference between these tournaments. Live poker and Online poker are so different to one another, despite being the same game. There are not many poker players in the world in comparison with the total amount of poker players in the world, who control both of these ways.
It is crucial to determine for yourself which of the two disciplines fit the best with you as a player. Do you like to play multiple tournaments at the same time to remain focused? Or do you prefer to play just one tournament and have more of the visual aspects of the game involved? Thanks to Betsafe and Chesterfield Poker Club, both of these options will be available to qualify for The Festival Weekend!

Live Satellites - The Festival Weekend
The Chesterfield Poker Club is an amazing location for live poker. Guided by pure class, players will have a great experience of live poker. Besides the Poker Club itself, it is also the location which is very comfortable. Not only for the local players, but especially for players who come to the capital to play some cards. It is roughly 15 minutes by taxi from the Airport, and a magnificent hotel is located just right next to the premises. As it's located in the centre of Tallinn, there are numerous restaurants and bars within walking distance as well.
About the tournament itself, there is a grand guaranteed set for these satellite tournaments of €1,250. This means that at least a total of approximately 50 entries needs to be made to cover the guaranteed prize pool. And let's be honest here, this is going to be quite the challenge. Moreover, players can expect a great experience for a low buy-in, and as the cherry on the pie perhaps some juicy overlay!

Online Satellites
If there is one place in poker where you don't need to be bound to travelling or checking out what is located around you, it is online poker! Online satellites will run every day between April 1 and 24 and will be available exclusively on Betsafe. Every day, there is at least one Main Event ticket guaranteed in a tournament which has a buy-in of just €5,50. Here also counts, a total of 50 entries is needed to cover the guarantee, so you can imagine the juiciness!
On top of the daily satellites, there will be a weekly satellite that goes with a buy-in of €20. Here you can win a package which includes accommodation and a Main Event ticket worth €250.
