Sviten Takes Over Tallinn as The Festival Weekend Returns

The Festival Weekend is coming back to Chesterfield Poker Club in Tallinn, and the ever-popular mixed game Sviten is headlining the event. The Festival Weekend Sviten Special Edition runs from July 16 to 19. Nine events highlight the schedule, with six of them featuring Sviten. Mixed game enthusiasts will not want to miss the festival, while there are three No Limit Hold’em events to add variety.

Sviten combines five-card draw and five-card Omaha, making it a favourite among many players. One of the fun parts happens right after the flop is dealt — that’s when the card-changing begins. If you choose to swap one card, you’ll get a new one face-up. Don’t like it? No problem — you can switch it again, just once more.

This is the second edition of The Festival Weekend hosted by the Chesterfield Poker Club. Earlier this year, The Festival Series made its first weekend stop, marking the successful completion of a seven-event series.
