History Rewritten at THMC!
The second day of The Festival Series in Rozvadov delivered not just adrenaline, but also a brand-new record. The crowd-favorite The Hendon Mob Championship has shattered its previous attendance high, drawing an incredible 1.722 entries to set a new benchmark for the event. Even more exciting, there are still two more flights scheduled for today, which means that final number is almost certain to climb even higher!
You can catch the highlights from yesterday in our recap video here:
Four-Card Champion
Alongside the record-breaking action at THMC, the 150€ PLO Championship also took center stage yesterday, much to the delight of Omaha enthusiasts. The tournament drew 85 entries, and among those making the final table was none other than the founder of The Festival Series—Martin “Franke” Von Zweigbergk. He finished in 5th place, taking home 1.392€. It was Ukraine’s Oleksandr Sadovyi who claimed the title and the top prize of 4.909€.
Today's Schedule
Saturday is packed with top-tier poker action, kicking off at 11:00 with Day 1C of the THMC event. Players will also have a shot at glory in the 250€ PLO Masters Event, while the action heats up again at 18:00 with another THMC Day 1D flight. And starting at 20:00, fans can look forward to a live-streamed session of "Franke and friends" cash game action!
Friday's Qualifiers Advance to the Next Stage
Friday at the THMC event offered players not one, but four different chances to bag chips for the next round. Two opening flights were held at Prague’s King’s Casino, while two more took place right in Rozvadov. So, how did these four flights pan out?
