Cardplayer Lifestyle will be hosting its third Mixed Game Festival, a three-day live event, as part of the Malta Poker Festival, at Portomaso Casino in St. Julian’s, Malta.
We’re going international! After staging two successful Mixed Game Festivals in Las Vegas in October 2021 and again in June of this year, we’re proud to announce that we’ll be taking our show on the road to the Mediterranean paradise of Malta from October 25-27 to run it back for more dealer’s choice awesomeness!
Mixed Game Festival III will be highlighted by a €200+30 H.O.R.S.E. tournament, with an official Malta Poker Festival trophy to be awarded to the winner.
In addition, away from the tournament area, we’ll be hosting three straight days of low-stakes cash games catering to lovers of all poker variants. We’ll be playing for fixed limit stakes of €5/10, with higher limits and pot limit games available upon request.
While the Malta Poker Festival is already a staple of the annual poker calendar, running twice yearly, this represents the first time they’ll be integrating mixed games into the proceedings.

I’m absolutely thrilled to have partnered up with Malta Poker Festival founder Ivonne Montealegre to host our third Mixed Game Festival. Specifically, I’m delighted to have the opportunity to show folks on the other side of the Atlantic just how fun mixed game poker can be.
Ivonne shares my excitement and said “I am so excited to bring the Mixed Game Festival by Cardplayer Lifestyle to the Malta Poker Festival for the first time. With Robbie Strazynski as the host, its guaranteed to be a fun, unique and exciting event. We have been hearing players asking for more than Texas Hold’em and PLO for a while and this joint venture brings the best together, here in our postcard island.”
See you all in Malta!
