Welcome to the Live Blog; Opener Finale and First Main Event Flight on Today’s Menu

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the poker.pro live blog that will cover the 2025 Hendon Mob Championship (THMC) London.

Not many live poker events are as enjoyable as The Hendon Mob Championship. The tournament has been held several times in 2025, mostly in conjunction with other festivals. Champions have been crowned in Malta, Rozvadvov, Bratislava, and more. There’s also been standalone festivals in Liechtenstein and Nottingham, and let’s not forget about the THMC Cape Town Million, which was played just a few weeks ago.

Now, the season will wrap up with a third and final standalone festival at Genting Casino Stratford (formerly known as Aspers). This blonde, Swedish Viking has been blessed with the opportunity to provide the live coverage, which will commence today at 16:15. Today’s focus will be Day 2 of the £200 Opener. The tournament kicked off yesterday with the Day 1 flight, and those who made it through to Day 2 will be accompanied by some additional players, seeing as late registration will be open during the first two levels today.

I’ve been requesting yesterday’s numbers (entries, prize pool, chip counts), and will update this text as soon as possible. The tournament holds a £30,000 guarantee.

Apart from the Day 2 finale, the £280 Main Event also starts today with its first starting-day flight. With a £150,000 guarantee, this event is expected to attract a large number of players across its total of seven starting-day flights.

As I’m writing this, there’s also a £30 Main Event cashout satellite running with five seats guaranteed. Another one will start at 17:15.

2025 THMC London – December 4 Schedule

All in all, it’s going to be a thrilling day at London’s finest poker venue. See you all at 16:15!
