Players will not want to miss what is expected to be the largest THMC event in Europe ever.

With five starting flights, a six-figure guarantee, WSOPE Main Event packages awarded to the final three players, and a Cape Town Million 2024 package for the winner, this is a truly extravagant kick-off to an exciting festival.

Head of Partnerships for GPITHM, Roland Boothby shared his thoughts; “We are thrilled to be teaming up with The Festival and King’s Resort to offer this groundbreaking edition of The Hendon Mob Championship. Not only is the event likely to be the biggest THMC event in Europe on record, but three players will be winning their way into the WSOP Europe Main Event, and another will be heading to Cape Town, South Africa to play The THMC Cape Town Million in November. Not bad for a €250 opening event! We look forward to getting The Festival in Rozvadov off to an incredible start.”
